In my local checkout:
```
git branch -m master main
git push -u origin main

(Thanks, https://www.hanselman.com/blog/EasilyRenameYourGitDefaultBranchFromMasterToMain.aspx)

Then in https://github.com/simonw/datasette-psutil/settings/branches I changed the default branch to `main`.

Links to these docs: https://help.github.com/en/github/administering-a-repository/setting-the-default-branch

That worked! https://github.com/simonw/datasette-psutil

One catch, which I think will impact my most widely used repos the most (like datasette) - linking to a specific file now looks like this:

https://github.com/simonw/datasette-psutil/blob/main/datasette_psutil/__init__.py

The old https://github.com/simonw/datasette-psutil/blob/master/datasette_psutil/__init__.py link is presumably frozen in time?

I've definitely got links spread around the web to my ""most recent version of this code"" that would use the `master` reference, which would need to be updated to `main` instead. Most of those are probably in the Datasette docs and on my blog though.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",639072811,Rename master branch to main,
