 Hi,

 The MacPorts Project may consider to rename its ''master'' branch to
 **main**

 For the rationale please refer to this news article:

 Why GitHub renamed its ''master'' branch to **main**

 The GitHub master branch is no more. Developers used to think it was
 untouchable, but that's not the case. Here's why GitHub made the switch
