@boaks has proposed a new development process which I support. The changes will include renaming the master branch to main.

• In the future, the branch main will contain contributions that have been reviewed by two different team members.
• Releases will be created from tagged versions in the main branch.
• The development branch will contain contributions in an early stage, possibly reviewed by only one team member.

Renaming the default branch will need a slight change on your local working copies as described here. You can do the change at your convenience as for the time being a redirect will be in place.
