This Valentine’s Day there is a lot of red on the screen for the X.Org Server with the code delta as a result of renaming of their main Git development branch and in the process selectively dropping questionable patches to the prior “master” codebase.
The effort noted in January of X.Org Server May Create A New Selective Git Branch With Hopes Of A New Release This Year has now been realized. As of a short time ago today, the “master” Git branch is ended with new X.Org Server development now on “main” and in the process starting off from a starting point of 2024 and then laying on the acceptable patches that were queued up over the past two years. See that aforelinked article for more details.
There is an individual who claims to pay 4x on energy because of “green” policies, that we are all communists and should stop breathing.
Triggered by a branch name change. I am fucking dead. It’s hilarious.
The real psychos are the projects that use both master and main.
I kind of want to use master on all my projects and change to main on any that get popular just to weed out the lunatics.
You’ll also weed out the BDSM crowd, are you sure you want that loss of talent?
