So calling the > master branch rawhide would be ok for containers :-) After looking at the infra and releng issue trackers Kevin managed to found back the ticket I was thinking about. You have my apologies, the namespace that was asking to a different default branch and for that branch to not be named "rawhide" was flatpaks. They wanted the default branch to be "stable", which would not apply to most other namespaces. Thus the proposal to go with "main" which works for all namespaces and seems to be on its way to become the industry standard.
