Thank you for reporting the issue! You are correct that some of the project cruft assumes that default branch is named master
, and therefore needs to be fixed when used as a template for repositories using another branch name, like GitHub's new default. There are plans to update the blog and its companion repository for 2021, and this issue will be addressed as a part of that update.
In the meantime, I would like to point you to https://github.com/cjolowicz/cookiecutter-hypermodern-python, which (unlike this repository) was designed as a project template, and is regularly updated. Since 2020.10.15, the project template also works with repositories using the new main
branch.
Since October 2020 the default branch for Github repositories is
main
instead ofmaster
. Since in the repo and articles there are a few links that rely on "master" this could cause confusion for new users since some things won't work as expected:Perhaps these should be updated to
main
instead? However on gitlab.com the default branch still remainsmaster
so if someone creates the repo there they face the same issues. In any case, a comment in the article would be helpful too.
