Thanks Colm and Jiajia for the discussion.

Not only that, it's also convenient for relevant discussion. When we say 
something like "sync with trunk", it would really mean the 'trunk' branch, 
instead of the other one like 'master'. Note, probably it's because we're old 
guys from SVN experience. 

If we can't solve the issue found by Colm, we may again ask for help from ASF 
INFRA team.

Regards,
Kai

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
Jiajia

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.
