Hi Colm,
Thank you to catch this issue, the default branch is still "master" after 'git 
clone', we should try to solve this problem.
I think the reason of renaming to "trunk" is because of the "trunk" is used 
more than "master" in other projects, such as "Hadoop".

Thanks

Subject: Re: Rename master branch to trunk and create 1.0.0-RC2 branch for the 
upcoming release

Is this really working? I just did a "git clone 
https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/directory-kerby.git";, and the default 
branch was still "master". I had to explicitly do a "git checkout trunk".

I'm a bit late with this comment, but I'm not sure why this change was 
necessary, as I don't see how users could be confused with a branch called 
"master", as it's the default for git.

Colm.
