Re: Change branch name in GitHub #project #communication
|
Dear All,
I totally understand the reason behind the wish to change names. Now, beware that: > The default branch name in Git is master.git-scm.com/book so, every time we create a new repo, or initialize one, we'll need to update this behavior (MAYBE until github does something about it ... which is funny, because they kind of have a dominating position in the "free git hosting" namespace ;) ) For very practical reasons, I would stand against renaming existing repositories and only apply a name change on newly created ones, and loudly anounce this in the README of the repo. If this (default branch name) is configurable, then we should look to implement a name that is fine with us. cheers,
