It's rather hard to type as it's switching hands a lot; both "master" and "main" are easier to type, and are also shorter (as least "main" would be an improvement in that sense; "primary" would be quite the regression IMO).

That is why the single handed "fred" branch shall be the beacon of all truth.

Easily solved, keep it to the QWERTY home row and make it the "asdf" branch. Could even backronym it to something like All Saved Data Files, maybe.
