I knew the master-to-main change was coming but I was really surprised to see a rawhide branch too when I received a new upstream bugzilla notification. I went ahead with rawhide directly and then searched for a clarification (shoot first ask questions later...) out of laziness. Being very opposed to renaming the branch to main for the reasons behind the change, I'm very happy that the opportunity to use rawhide as our main packaging branch was taken. I understand that "master" offends some, but for starters the word itself has several meanings and out of context it doesn't have to be offending. I'm also offended by the feeling of being virtually chased by a crowd with pitchforks just because I don't see a harm of having a master branch or red-black trees (with whitelist and blacklist, I can clearly see the offense). For the people who want to be welcoming to everyone, please take that side into consideration too, this kind of injunctions can also feel exhausting, shaming and yet pointless. I'm happy that we ended up with what feels like a very logical name for our main packaging branch: rawhide is self-descriptive, consistent with the other managed branches, and hopefully not going to discourage newcomers to join. Hopefully the Rawhide TV show never sees the pitchforks of the cancel crowd. Maybe it has problematic undertones too? I have never watched it and don't plan to, for me it will always be a Blues Brothers reference but next thing you know #cancelbluesbrothers..? I sympathize with the cause and support it, but I'm also baffled at how extreme things turned.
