First of all, well done it's a great app!

Anyway in the "Remote control" challenge, it requires to create the remote repository using master branch, but GitHub has replaced it with main now, so I wasn't able to accomplish it!

Keep up the great work

@jlord would you be open to this change? To change all references to master to main instead?

It may require some additional setup on some people's machines (to default in Git to main instead of master) - eg. git config --global init.defaultBranch main as in our System Setup Guide for our bootcamp.

As a workaround, you can create a local master branch, switch to it, push it to GitHub and continues the Challenges :

git checkout -b master
git push origin master

replace all references to master to main

Replace the default branch name to main in all challenges and images.
Master is no longer the default branch that git uses, so this commit replaces all
occurrences of the branch `master` to `main` in all challenges and two images.
This also fixes jlord#311
