Difference between Main Branch and Master Branch.
At the time when Git was being developed by Linus Torvalds, in America, there was once a slavery system. Keeping that in mind the developer named their main branch as Master Branch considering others as Slave branches. But as time passed people began to criticise these names and when GitHub came under Microsoft they renamed it Master to Main thus in GitHub, we have a Main branch but as Git is open source the name Master in Git wasn't changed.
