"master" has been a git convention since the earliest days of git and it's less confusing to new users following documentation if it always exists (and a lot of users' first git experience is with git svn). Why not just use "master" as one of your branches? It won't bite you. "git svn fetch" will never clobber your "master" if it already exists. -- Eric Wong -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
