        It just bothers me that “master” branch is a misnomer. It’s a hold over from CVS/SVN where there was actually a central authoritative branch. I’m not necessary saying the other reasons don’t have merit, as well.

            I always rename it to “dev.” Hard to have any problems or confusion with that

              dev is confusing it implies it’s not the stable branch, no? Or was the master branch never stable for you?

                The only time I merge unstable code is behind a feature flag

                  Then what’s the reasoning behind “dev”?
