Rename and protect the default branch

Open Jyyjy opened this issue 9 months ago • 0 comments

  1. Rename the master branch to main so that this repo matches current defaults and is more welcoming to new contributors.
  2. Add branch protection rules to main that require a pull request with an approval to commit.
  3. Update GitHub actions to use main instead of master.
  4. Notify dev list to update their locals as such: https://docs.github.com/en/repositories/configuring-branches-and-merges-in-your-repository/managing-branches-in-your-repository/renaming-a-branch#updating-a-local-clone-after-a-branch-name-changes

Steps 1 and 2 require an Apache infra ticket.
