You might just switch the default GitHub branch to dev, there's a case to be made that it's where developers should be starting if you have one
I like that solution since it resolves the issue with the least amount of changes that need to be made. :-)
Yeah it's what I do for all my repos and there's been no downside. Master might be what's best to deploy but you pretty much always want people browsing on GitHub or cloning the repo starting on dev
One side effect of having put considerable work into the dev branch without merging into master is the docs in the master branch have diverged from the dev branch. This makes things confusing for newcomers to the project. It is not reasonable to have to switch to a different branch to read documentation about a repository.
