Re:GitHub is working on renaming default branch from “master” by username90 on Friday June 12, 2020 @08:30PM (#23505448)
Inconsistent naming standards hurts everyone. Now some repositories will have master branches while others will have them named something else, it makes things harder to work with. If every developer spends just a minute wondering where the main branch is before realizing the new naming standards, that is still a lifetimes worth of time lost due to this change.
