### 🚀 New and noteworthy
|
|
|
|
#### New Git default branch - "main"
|
|
|
|
We are joining the Git community and updating "master" to "main". Using the term "master" for the main
|
|
development branch can be offensive to some people. Existing versions of Git have been always capable of
|
|
working with any branch name and since 2.28.0 (July 2020) the default initial branch is configurable
|
|
(`init.defaultBranch`). Since October 2020, the default branch for new repositories on GitHub
|
|
is "main". Finally, PMD will also use this new name for the main branch in all our own repositories.
|
|
|
|
Why "main"? PMD uses a very simple branching model - pull requests with feature branches and one main development
|
|
branch, from which releases are created. That's why "main" is currently the best fitting name.
|
|
|
|
More information:

|
|
- <https://github.blog/changelog/2020-10-01-the-default-branch-for-newly-created-repositories-is-now-main/>
|
|
|
|
What changes?
|
|
- We change the default branch on GitHub, so that pull requests are automatically created against `main` from
|
|
now on.
|
|
- If you have already a local clone of PMD's repository, you'll need to rename the old master branch locally:
|
|
```
|
|
git branch --move master main
|
|
git fetch origin
|
|
git branch --set-upstream-to=origin/main main
|
|
git remote set-head origin --auto
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

|
|
- If you created a fork on GitHub, you'll need to change the default branch in your fork to `main` as
|
|
well (Settings > Default Branch).
|
|
- Some time after this release, we'll delete the old master branch on GitHub. Then only `main` can be used.
|
|
- This change is expanded to the other PMD repositories as well, e.g. pmd-designer and pmd-regression-tester.
