We have been running for quite some time the "breaking-changes" CI job with 'main' as the default initial branch name, long before this series materialized. Thanks to it, we know that such a flip should not break any of our tests, so this patch being the first in the series makes perfect sense.

No reason to repost, but for those who are reading from the sidelines, the URL would work better with "org<pull" -> "org/git/pull".
Thanks.
