Problem

The Git community has recently shifted to using 'main' instead of 'master' as the default branch (for more information, see https://github.com/github/renaming).

Solution

Rename the default branch in the repositories I've listed below to 'main' from 'master'? According to GitHub, this shouldn't affect deployment to GitHub pages and links to the master branch will redirect to the main branch if necessary. For details on how to do this, refer to the following instructions.

Important Note

We would have to coordinate this change safely to ensure that everyone changes their local default branch to main as well.

Repositories using 'master'
