Is there a secondary corresponding to this primary?

I guess the idea is that this is the trunk that other branches branch
from?  Looking at the history, it seems that this test was added
relatively recently and it may have had the upcoming branch name change
in mind (or in other words if it were an older test it might be expected
to use "master").

That suggests an alternative that is agnostic to init.defaultBranch:
what if this uses "git switch -C main"?

Thanks,
Jonathan
