git uses "master" to mean the canonical, pristine version as in the usage of the term in art and photography: master
5b: an original from which copies can be made
especially : a master recording (such as a magnetic tape)
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/masterYou can branch from master the way you duplicate a master tape cassette, and the copy is not any worse or subordinate. In fact the whole point is that the branches are improvements. |
