It may also help avoid any future confusion to rename the current 'master'
branch to indicate that it has been obsolesced, maybe something like
'master-obsolete-2020-12-16' or, to place it lexical-y closer to 'main'
in listings of branches, rename it to main-obsolete-2020-12-16' - that
would also be helpful for emacs users 200 years from now who can be
expected not to know anything about 'master' branches.
