I'm guessing it's time to fiddle local CPython clones to account for

Blob 2 ("upstream"):

"""
The CPython repository's default branch was renamed from ``master`` to

``main``
after the Python 3.10b1 release. If you had cloned the repository before this
change, you can rename your local branch as follows::

     git branch -m master main
     git fetch upstream
     git branch -u upstream/main main
"""

 From my dim understanding, "upstream" makes more sense, but I don't
know.

For 'pull from upsteam, push to origin' workflow,
https://docs.github.com/en/github/administering-a-repository/renaming-a-branch

says the 2nd, +
git remote set-head origin -a

+ optionally, 'to remove tracking references to the old branch name'
git remote prone origin

When I did this, there was a '[pruned]' line for every branch ever on the fork (about 200 for me), including the bots temporary backport branches.

I am now preparing a small PR and will test if creation works as usual.

It does.
