RES: Can git change?

Hey, thanks for the replies, guys.

Yes, as Junio said, my intention was to understand a bit about what you were doing, so thank you for the explanation!

The idea isn't really to imitate what you are doing, but just to use it as a benchmark to show that changing the name of the branch might not seem like an important thing, but it is a global movement that is being adopted by many renowned developers.

Quoting one of the comments on the discussion topic I raised:

"It's only the default name for repositories created inside GitHub. Since our students only create their repositories locally on their computers with Git, I don't see how GitHub's decision will affect them. If Git decides to change over from master to main, and there is an industry-wide push to adopt this change (which doesn't seem very likely to me), then I might agree with you"

So, I just wanted to show that guy that this is an industry-wide push :)

Best regards, Patricia Camiansky.

Octoupi in our history, at least the older ones, solve no real life

dubious value.

And their presense makes bisection less efficient than it could be

around them, which is a real downside.
