- Default branch name - WAIT until we can use github tools January 2021
- Lynette is signed up to be a beta tester for github. Target for public release is end January
- Github have provided the change button, Lynette has provided feedback as a beta tester. There is an issue that after the change to `main` someone can repush the `master` branch, has suggest a deny list of branch names. Links in comment will get forwarded to `main` unless there is a new branch with the old name
- For forked repos there will be a message
- What will it take to make the change to `main` for LD4P repos?
- Lynette has documented HERE
- Lynette will rename for qa_server, work with Greg on qa_server container; document on LD4P wiki
- For our blacklight fork we should wait until the D&A team change
- 2021-02-12 E. Lynette Rayle still to reach out to fork owners
- Think that forks aren't too problematic for LD4P repos because we don't have folks contributing back
- Have done rename for CUL-IT qa_server and will for LD4P qa_server
- ACTION: (DONE) Lynette will review set of LD4P repos with Cornell primary ownership so that we can change these to use `main` branch, later propose that other LD4P repo owners do it
- 2021-02-19
- Created Renaming of LD4P Repositories page to identify Cornell repos, provide instructions, and track progress.
