[PATCH] tests: do not use "slave branch" nomenclature

From
Paolo Bonzini <bonzini@gnu.org>
Date
Jun 18, 2020, 16:38 UTC
Message-ID
<20200618163843.22181-1-bonzini@gnu.org>
From: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

Git does not have slave branches and has never had. Independent of any future change to the naming of branches, remove the sole appearance of the term.
