Subject: generating a git repo: main instead of master

It seems that more and more public repositories expect that the principal git branch should be «main» instead of «master»


However, the following steps in emacs lead to a git repository, where the principal branch is master instead of main.

    1. Opening an empty file in an empty directory

    2. Write something and register the file

    3. Chose git

    4. Commit

Voila the result is

How can I change this behavior to have
