A much larger change happened, or rather, is happening for addons. https://github.com/OSGeo/grass-addons/issues/528 The master branch was kept in the repo for backwards compatibility, so that old g.extension version can install from it, but now it seems rather useless since old version of g.extension wrongly assumes that main or master translate to the default branch, so they can't fetch addons from branch called master anyway. (master is translated to trunk in the GitHub Subversion interface which is used to fetch the source code, but trunk points to default which is now the new grass7 branch which has the new structure which the old g.extension can't handle - well, at least as far as I understand)
