    And yet there’s a big push to rename git “master” branches, which have no slave connotations and are more analogous to master recordings.

    Its not like I’ll fight it, but it’s stupid.

      It is stupid, and it’s because of a failure to understand the nuance.

      I will not inconvenience myself or anyone else by making any changes to existing configurations, which will surely break workflows, but I don’t give a shit what the main branch is called as long as it’s obvious.

      I thought it was dumb too but, to be honest, I kind of prefer using “main” now. It’s quicker to type lol
