Please rename the default branch to main

What new feature should Elvish have?

A few years ago the global movement Black Lives Matter began. In the company I was working at we renamed all our default branches from master to main. Yes, it was a bit of work, but we decided this was sufficiently important to take the time to do that.

Since then I find it rather jarring to work in a repo with a master branch.

Please would you consider renaming the default branch to main?

Oh sure.

Done now. GitHub shows you the commands you need to run to update your local checkout when you visit https://github.com/elves/elvish so that's quite nice.
