Seriously, it was only "main" when I started at Apple 26 years ago. Our version control was such that when someone wanted to edit a file it was "checked out", locked to others on the team, until it was checked back in.
It worked surprisingly well (obviously no merge conflicts for one thing). I doubt anyone would suggest going back to something as simplistic (but I have to admit Git feels way too complicated than it should at times).
