Thanks for taking care of this one. The titles all imply that we are committed to switch the default to 'main', but I understand that the focus is more about using a hardcoded initial branch in these tests, so that the tests will not be affected when the default changes from 'master' to any other value, even when the ":dirname" and ":random" magic were to be invented and used as the default ;-) So these may get unwarranted "who says we gained a concensus to change the default in that direction?" complaint, which might want to be reworded, ... > t3200: finish transitioning to the initial branch name `main` > t3201: finalize transitioning to using the branch name `main` > t3203: complete the transition to using the branch name `main` > t3205: finalize transitioning to using the branch name `main` > t5505: finalize transitioning to using the branch name `main` ... but these just make a statement of fact (i.e. these scripts use X as initial branch name), and less likely to confuse the matter. > t1400: use `main` as initial branch name > t5510: use `main` as initial branch name > t5703: use `main` as initial branch name > t6302: use `main` as initial branch name > t9902: use `main` as initial branch name And of course, this is what we want: > tests: drop the `PREPARE_FOR_MAIN_BRANCH` prereq Thanks.
