Okay, I'll look into seeing if we can call it default. Thanks

Ah, well, this is true for repositories you start on github/gitlab etc nowadays. Some remarks 1. In git you can rename branches easily (while in mercurial you would need the evolve extension, and even then it is more complicated). Historically the «main» branch was called «master». But on political reasons «main» is now preferred. 2. As I said we push an existing repository, that is different from creating an empty one in github. For me using the name «default» would simplify things considerably especially now, since I had to upgrade my Ubuntu system and the most recent mercurial version is less flexible concerning the hg-git exporter. 3. So I propose we start with default, if we see that a lot of people want to contribute and are confused by this name, we might reconsider (this also gives me time to look for a technical solution) Uwe -- I strongly condemn Hamas heinous despicable pogroms/atrocities on Israel I strongly condemn Putin's war of aggression against Ukraine. I support to deliver weapons to Ukraine's military. I support the EU and NATO membership of Ukraine.
