As Rod said, being a Master, like a master of a trade, is not a bad thing. Where it gets bad is the slavery part, so I can fully understand that one wants to get rid of all master/ slave namings. In case of the branch name “master”, I don’t see any branch’s named slave, so where’s the

My personal opinion is that this sort of thing is taking PC to extremes and if anything it's a backward step. Trying to bury the words doesn't change what has happened and is still happening around the world. Just trying to forget and pretend slavery never happened isn't the way to go.

I really wish that everyone would concentrate on improving the software instead of worrying about the name of the version that most consider as being the master. It is master since it is where the code is actually shared with everyone.   It is not beneficial to anyone to have a narrow view for
