[mapserver-users] Please submit all Pull Requests to the new 'main' branch

[Jeff McKenna]

Hi all,

(happy 2021 to everyone)

The MapServer Project Steering Committee (PSC) has recently voted and 
changed the default 'master' Github repository to a less-insensitive 
name of 'main'.  All projects under the Github "MapServer organization" 
umbrella have now been updated for this change (MapServer, 
MapServer-documentation, MapCache, TinyOWS, basemaps, etc...).

Github seems to handle the change well (with redirects etc), but here 
are some specific steps/notes for your MapServer fork/clone adapting: 
https://github.com/MapServer/MapServer/wiki/Renamed-Default-Branch

If you have an existing Pull Request, Github has already automatically 
updated it to point to the correct 'main' repository (no more changes 
from you are needed).

If you have any questions please let us know.  (if you find more tips 
please edit that wiki page with your additions)

Wishing all a nice weekend,

on behalf of the MapServer team,

-jeff
