It sounds way less offensive to those who decry the original terminology’s problematic roots but still keeps its meaning intact.

    The default has been main for awhile.

    This is the case in our current version of git (git version 2.28. 0). As of October 1, 2020, any new repository you create on GitHub.com will use main as the default branch.

          can you point where ANYTHING is recommended at all there?

          Cause it simply says that you can change the name. But “master” is the default. That doesn’t sound like a “recommendation” at all. But just making people aware since some repositories try to force things like “Main”. Almost like the repo you’re using might be enforcing shit that Git in of itself doesn’t give a shit about.
