So creating a new repo on GitHub, you get a set of getting started steps. They changed the default branchname to "main" from "master" due to its connotations with slavery.
When I create a new repo now, the initial getting started steps recommend creating a branch named "master" as opposed to "main" as it was a while ago.
It's especially weird since the line git branch -M master is completely unnecessary, since git init still sets you up with a "master" branch.
Disclaimer: I have a bunch of private repos, and my default branchnames are pretty much all "master".
Is this a recent change?
Edit: Mystery solved, my default branchname is "master". Thanks bamboo@lemmy.blahaj.zone !

Starts out with space ninja stuff, and progressively gets weirder. Currently it's the time travel zombie boyband clone hunting story arc. Still with space ninjas though.
