Re: community-notice: cloud-init default branch rename from master to main

 

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA512

Hi Cloud-init,

   Our upstream default branch name is now 'main' instead of 'master'. The
rename properly migrated existing PRs to target 'main'.

To avoid confusion on local clones please update your local clones of
cloud-init to track the new 'main' branch:

  git fetch upstream    # or 'origin' depending on your config
  git checkout master
  git branch -m main
  git branch -u upstream/main
  git pull


Best regards,
Cloud-init upstream
