I just got annoyed yesterday when git made the default branch master and had to fiddle to push to githubs main

You had this problem probably because you created your repo with the GitHub web UI?

I always create the local repo first with git init, make at least 1 commit, and then gh repo create. And yes, my default branch would be master but why should I care if I offend some Americans.

Naw I did it in the cmd line I guess the git version I have defaults to master I had already started working B4 init ing

git push -u origin master and you're done. Then in the GitHub repo change the "default branch" to master.

Or, git branch -m main to rename locally.
