Description
Also have to change references to the branch in .travis.yml, README, and CONTRIBUTING. Double check any other markdown files as well - sometimes links have the branch name in them.
Contributor guide
First steps
- Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
- Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
- Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
- Open a pull request that references the issue number.
Research direction
Start by checking branch references in .travis.yml, README, and CONTRIBUTING, then search the other Markdown files for links or text containing the old branch name. Update the references consistently with the branch rename. Done means the repository uses main in these files and no relevant Markdown links still point to master.
