Charter Discussion
Front-runner for:
- Tools are defaulting to "main"
- Surfliner is using "trunk"
- Princeton is using "main"
- Emory is transitioning to "main"
- Main is branching model agnostic.
- Trunk may have the branching model association.
- For tab completion "main" is close to "master"
- Other organizations are not yet in conversation.
Consensus of the team is to propose "main"
Goal is to have a migration strategy document and downstream impact to the Component Maintenance Working Group (Phase 1) for their next meeting (August 28th 2020).
Deliverables
Scope would be "samvera". It would be nice-to-have updates for "samvera-labs", however, we should ensure that our promotion process checks branches.
Encourage upgrading to git v2.28.0, so we can as a community set the defaults and ease people's use.
Branch Renaming Tools
The app to rename github default branch will adjust PRs to point to the new branch.
