In some tests, it may make sense to configure init.defaultbranchname
in $HOME/.gitconfig upfront and either (1) leave instances of
'master' as they are (we may want to avoid 'slave', but 'master' is
not all that wrong), or (2) rewrite instances of 'master' to 'main'
(or 'primary' or whatever init.defaultbranchname gets configured).
