I've created new `stable` branches in gnucash.git and gnucash-docs.git and changed Github's default branch to them. This is effectively a rename of master; when Derek has time he'll delete the master branches from code and Github. You can modify your local repositories with: git branch -D maint git branch -m master stable git fetch origin git branch -u origin/stable stable git remote set-head origin -a and optionally to clean things up: git remote prune origin Please do this ASAP to avoid inadvertently pushing anything to maint or master!
