Honestly I've been fine with main branch. It's shorter. My problem is it's not consistent because it takes forever for a bigcorp to do something. So now we have repos with a main branch (the current branch) and a master branch (hasn't been touched in the year and half since the switch).
- tsimionescu 4y agoI don't have a particular problem with main, I was in fact more used to it as it was the default in P4. However, the arguments for this renaming are absurd, and i think that absolutely matters. And note that I actually think renouncing the use of master/slave in favor of primary/secondary or something similar is actually warranted. But extending this to master branch, when many of the people doing the change had a Master of Science title probably, is annoying and arbitrary.
