There have been a lot of discussions about this topic. You can find some pointers to them (though maybe not the most recent ones) in the article "The history of `master` in Git" in: https://git.github.io/rev_news/2020/07/29/edition-65/ There has been also an official statement by the Conservancy and the Git PLC (Project Leadership Committee): https://sfconservancy.org/news/2020/jun/23/gitbranchname/ Best, Christian.
