In light of the ongoing Black Lives Matter protests around the world, the tech industry has begun to reassess its usage of racially charged terminology. While the terminology of "master/slave" has been around for a long time, said terminology carries racially charged meanings to black developers, because it reminds them of the horrors of slavery that their ancestors went through. Therefore, it is necessary for such outdated terminology to be purged from my repositories, and replaced with more inclusive and politically correct terms.
That is why, in the coming weeks, I will be renaming the "master" branch of each of my emulators' repositories to "main", pending all currently unfinished commits.
