Would be great if we add a deprecation notice (wich could include an EOL for the symbolic-ref) to git's output while operating on master branch :D

== Summary ==

This Change will move Fedora git repositories to use "main" as the
default git branch instead of "master". Specific repositories will be
manually moved and default git branch for new projects will be set to
use "main".

The Fedora Community strives to be open and welcoming. Some language
around our git repositories is dated and could be more inclusive. Many
git repositories currently use "master" as the default branch. This
Change will move many repositories (see below) to use a "main" branch
as default. This small bit of naming adjustment is in-line with
Fedora's vision for free and open source software built by inclusive,
welcoming, and open-minded communities.

== Upgrade/compatibility impact ==

Users with old checkouts will need to update their git configuration
or re-clone repositories that have changed before they can see any new
changes.

Is it possible to enhance pagure to support configuring branch
symbolic refs when branches are renamed, so clients don't need
to update their checkout ? IIUC, it involves running something
approximately like this on the server git repo:

    git symbolic-ref refs/heads/master refs/heads/main



Regards,
Daniel
