Maybe I'm missing something, but I'm very confused about what is going to be changed that you are concerned about. What is it precisely that going to be happening (or which you think is going to be happening) which is causing you concern? Is it changing the default branch name when creating a new repository? (Which affects only people creating new repositories) Is it renaming the master branch for the git repo? (which affects people who are developing or tracking git via the repository, as opposed to using a pre-packaged git provided by their Linux Distributions / OS). Is it improving the tools so that other projects can more easily rename their primary development branch from master to main? (Which many projects have been doing *already*, without not a lot of Sturm und Drang as near as I can tell, at least in many/most cases.) Is it removing places in the git program where "master" is treated specially (e.g., in how the default text for merge descrtipion is worded)? What, specifically, is the "backwards incompatible change" that you are most worried about? Because many projects have already been renaming their primary development branch from master to main *already*. - Ted
