Standardise on 'main' as the default branch?

All bar one of the 4 comdev Git repos use 'main' as the default branch.

I think we should standardise on that going forward, and change the
default branch for comdev-site.

Agreed?

That is perhaps true for a code repo, though it's unlikely that there
will be a single develop branch.

Not sure they makes sense for a website repo.

The change is now complete. AFAICT everything has been updated OK, if
not, let me know.

I'm not opposed to that as long as you check that it doesn't break things.

Re: Standardise on 'main' as the default branch?

Posted by sebb <se...@gmail.com>.
This is getting off-topic.

My proposal is to ask Infra to change the default branch for
comdev-site to 'main', so it is the same as the other comdev site
repos.

I will also make any necessary changes to scripts and documentation
for that specific repo.

Sorry, but any other names are out of scope here.
If anyone feels strongly enough to manage and follow through a
different change, then please start your own thread.

I will rephrase:

Does anyone have any objections to my proposal to change the default
branch for comdev-site to main?

Thanks,
Sebb

I think it's really a matter of project's choice.

Those who use gitflow use main(master)/release/develop - they have
all well-defined meaning and it's cool for projects using it. For other
projects, main might be the default development choice if their
merge/release workflow is simpler (that's airflow's choice for example -
even if it is a code repo, this works well for us too). I personally adapt
to whatever style project uses and don't prefer one over the other -
whatever is comfortable for most of the people contributing there is cool.
This is what I love about git that it does not make opinionated choices and
every project can choose their workflow.

I like release and develop. FWIW, a lot of Apache Commons components use

AW: Standardise on 'main' as the default branch?

Posted by Christofer Dutz <ch...@c-ware.de>.
Hi,

There are many projects, where “main” contains the latest released version and „develop“ is for development.
Others use “main” for development and something else for releases.

That’s why I’m suggesting naming the threads according to what they are used for.

“main” for a developer is probably the branch he does his most work on (aka “develop”).
“main” for a user is probably the branch that he uses for using the framework (aka “release”).

With “release” and “develop” I think it’s absolutely clear what is on which branch.

That was why I suggested it.

Chris

To me, "main" is always "develop".

To me, "main" is always "develop".

Yes, of course change master to main.

I agree that main is no less ambiguous than master, but the website
does not really have a development/release cycle, so I'm not sure
'release' is appropriate here.

Maybe the default branch should be something like 'production' or
'live' for websites.
However that would mean changing the other repos to keep in step.

I would like to make a slightly different proposal.
Name the branch, on which development happens "develop" and the one that contains the released versions "releases". With "main" you never really know what it's used for.

But I think I brought this up multiple times before, so if be +1 on a change.
