Subject: [VOTE] Renaming default git branch name from 'master' to 'main' and
replace offensive words as appropriate for inclusiveness
Hi All,
Following the discussion thread on renaming default git branch name and
inclusiveness [1], I would like to start a vote to gather consensus on the
following plan:
1. Accept the following rename PRs (raised against 'master' branch) which
renames git default branch to 'main' and replaces some offensive words, and
Merge them post acceptance.
- cloudstack => PR: https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/4922
- cloudstack-documentation => PR:
https://github.com/apache/cloudstack-documentation/pull/155
- cloudstack-www => PR: https://github.com/apache/cloudstack-www/pull/83
- cloudstack-cloudmonkey => PR:
https://github.com/apache/cloudstack-cloudmonkey/pull/76
- cloudstack-kubernetes-provider => PR:
https://github.com/apache/cloudstack-kubernetes-provider/pull/29
- cloudstack-ec2stack => PR:
https://github.com/apache/cloudstack-ec2stack/pull/2
- cloudstack-gcestack => PR:
https://github.com/apache/cloudstack-gcestack/pull/3
2. Request ASF infra to disable pushes to 'master' branch.
3. Rename 'master' branch to 'main' [2][3], and Request ASF infra (open INFRA
ticket) to make 'main' as the default branch [4], in GitHub repo settings for
all the CloudStack repos. This will also re-target the current PRs against
'master' branch to 'main'.
3a. The update on the central repo will be done as follows (only by a PMC or
Infra member with access)
- Clone the repo (git clone https://github.com/apache/cloudstack.git)
- Sync local 'master' with the cloudstack repo (cd cloudstack && git
checkout master && git fetch --all -p && git pull)
- Rename local 'master' branch to 'main' (git branch -m master main)
- Push renamed 'main' branch (git push -u origin main)
- Update Default Branch on GitHub [4]
- Delete 'master' branch (git push origin --delete master)
3b. After the central renaming has been done. New users can clone and directly
checkout 'main' branch. Existing users can start using 'main' locally, using
the below steps.
- Switch to master branch (git checkout master)
- Rename local 'master' branch to 'main' (git branch -m master main)
- Sync local 'main' with repo (git fetch)
- Remove the existing tracking connection with “origin/master” (git
branch --unset-upstream)
- Create a new tracking connection with the new “origin/main” branch
(git branch -u origin/main)
- All local branches should still point to the same commit as base
revision. If there is a problem (git checkout <problematic branch> && git
rebase main)
4. Update the integrated systems with CloudStack repos, mainly Travis CI and
Jenkins configuration with 'main' branch. Check and update UI building,
apidocs, systemvmtemplate builds; project website and docs (cwiki); and any
other build/release jobs. Track them through the issue:
https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/issues/4887.
5. Perform Health Checks (using a dummy PR), and ensure there are no issues
with the build/release configuration. This PR needs to run full matrix of
tests. Fix the issues noticed during the health checks.
6. Announce the default branch change to 'main' (and 'master' deprecation) on
the mailing list.
The vote will be open until Fri 7th May 2021.
For sanity in tallying the vote, Can PMC members please be sure to indicate
“(binding)” with their vote?
