lafiona opened a new pull request #12489:
URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/12489


   ## Overview
   
   This pull request is part of a larger effort to rename the default branch 
from `master` to `main`. In order to enable a smooth transition and streamline 
any future renaming tasks, the default branch name is computed and used. 
   
   ## Implementation
   1. Added a script, `git-vars.sh` that computes the `DEFAULT_BRANCH` of a git 
repository. Calculations for other required git variables, in the future, can 
be added to this script.
   2. For the following release scripts, hardcoded references to 'master' have 
been replaced with the value of `DEFAULT_BRANCH`:
       - `01-prepare.sh`
       - `post-04-website.sh`
       - `post-05-ruby.sh`
       - `post-09-docs.sh`
       - `post-12-bump-versions.sh`
       -` post-13-msys2.sh`
       - `post-14-homebrew.sh`
   3. The changes to `01-prepare.sh` and 'post-12-bump.sh` are required for 
renaming the default branch name for `apache/arrow`. However, the changes for 
the remaining files are done preemptively in anticipation of other repositories 
renaming the `master` branch.
   
   ## Testing
   1. Testing details to be shared.
   
   
   ## Notes
   1. Thank you @kevingurney, for helping me with this pull request!
