Thanks for summarising and sharing.  That's a really good practice.

This is a rather philosophical question.  The special treatment of the
"trunk" in Subversion and a branch named "master" in Git are just
examples of (common) policies, not enforced by the corresponding tools.

Hence you pick what *you* think should be your "master" and either fork
"master" off that branch (and delete it afterwards) or rename that
branch to "master".
