Look, we already got rid of "Master/Slave" in favor of things like "Parent/Child", "Active/Standby", or "Primary/Secondary". We're not making more changes because right-wingers are afraid of everything.
do we still have mother and daughterboards?
"Okay Todd, looks like Steve is working on auth, so you'll be on the blacklist today-... ahah I mean, working on the blacklist today ahem..."
tbh i think "master" terminology is only bad if paired with "slave". the word itself kinda just lost it's original meaning
but I don't really care about git's change. im only using master out of habit
