There are several things that would need to be changed if we make master our development branch. The Readme would need to be adjusted. Workflows currently targeting develop would need to be checked and adjusted. We will likely be discovering things for a while. Overall, I lean toward making the change. Even though it will cause some immediate issues, I think it will be somewhat simpler in the end. |

Having looked at some of the workflow issues with dependabot, I suggest we consider switching the default branch of the project from master to develop. By switching the default branch, our workflows should largely work unchanged. It might even allow us to fix nightly to just be nightly (#1714). We would continue to work on the develop branch. Further, all our documentation already says to submit changes to the develop branch, so the documentation would not need to be changed much either. When we have that working well, we could then delete the master branch and just maintain develop and the latest release branch(es). The one thing I'm not quite sure about is how this would impact forks. Does anyone know? The amount of work for each of our many forks should be considered in choosing 1) develop on master, 2) switch default to develop, or 3) keep working as we have been. How do others feel about this? |

I noted in #1768 that having the default branch match our development branch brings easier and more useful workflows because that is the assumed arrangement in github projects. I think it is time to make that change. I noticed in looking at documentation and projects for CodeQL that many projects now use the name |
