🐛 Use any default branch instead of `master` #243

Closed fregante closed 3 years ago

The solution is simple if you detach yourself from master === default and instead use the HEAD as the right terminology in a remote server.

This could alternatively internally referred to as <default> instead of HEAD, but I like minimal-impact PRs.

Also available in the https://github.com/tiged/tiged community fork

This also solves one specific scenario explained on https://github.com/Rich-Harris/degit/issues/37#issuecomment-739428160

Any idea when this PR will get merged

@fregante Could you modify the readme of your repo to add installation directions. Now it says npm i -g degit. It should say degitto to make it clear. Also, this might just be an issue for me. But after installing I needed to add shebang #!/usr/bin/env node in the beginning of bin.js to be able to run it. We should make your fork a community driven fork, since this project has been abandoned.

If anyone would like to maintain a fork, please do. Degitto is meant to be temporary and only fixes this issue. I’ll probably rewrite only the part I need and merge into my GitHub Actions Templating project rather than keep degit/degitto as a dependency.

@fregante @paulocoghi @rajasegar @Rich-Harris I started a community driven fork that has this PR included among other fixes. https://github.com/tiged/tiged I welcome people to star it, if they like it (currently has 1). When or if Rich Harris becomes active again, I am willing to give him control of that repo or merge it to this. In the mean time I am looking for people to maintain this repo. Any help is welcome.

If you want to use the fork. Simply run:

npm uninstall -g degit
npm install -g tiged

Then you can just use it like you used to. degit username/repo my-app. You don't need to write tiged (it doesn't even work with that name).
