Defaults and conventions matter. One reason I like GNOME so much is
because the defaults are amazing. And while "master" is a bit of a
sucky default, it still has a lot of weight as a default. And I
question whether it is worth the effort to change that default over a
tiny bit of suckiness.
This precisely indicates the problem with the current situation: The
current default sucks, but nobody is willing to change it because
nearly everyone every one else is doing it.
And frankly, "because everyone is doing it" is a terrible argument for
continuing to do something shitty. If we don't take the first step to
fix the problem, who will? Maybe that if GNOME does this, then other
projects will follow suit, and it's my sincere hope that this is the
case.
(Carmen, this isn't a dig at you, but at us in general)
