implemented.

NOTE: The “trick”/“catch” is that with github you have to use github repo settings and create/change the Default branch (second config option from the top bellow the repository name), because github won’t allow you to delete or rename a remote branch (for example master) while it is set/configured to be the Default branch. so the trick is to:

  1. set some other branch to Default branch (if you do not have one, create one, you need a placeholder)
  2. do your renames/deletions, etc.
  3. when you are done, go again to the github settings for the repo, and set (one of your renamed branches) to be the Default branch
