Update *.git.wordpress.org to rename `master` to `trunk`.

WordPress CoreCore Core is the set of software required to run WordPress. The Core Development Team builds WordPress. has decided to rename from master to trunk on all repo’s: https://make.wordpress.org/core/2020/06/18/proposal-update-all-git-repositories-to-use-main-instead-of-master/ and Gutenberg did that over here: https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/27741

This is primarily for https://github.com/wordpress/wordpress/ & https://github.com/wordpress/wordpress-develop/ ( core.git.wordpress.org & develop.git.wordpress.org) but could also be applied to all of the git mirrors for simplicity.

The full list of *.git.wordpress.orgWordPress.org The community site where WordPress code is created and shared by the users. This is where you can download the source code for WordPress core, plugins and themes as well as the central location for community conversations and organization. https://wordpress.org/ mirrors are the following AFAIK, and all can be updated without issue, as all the projects listed will just follow core’s direction here. I don’t know how this will affect the *.git => githubGitHub GitHub is a website that offers online implementation of git repositories that can easily be shared, copied and modified by other developers. Public repositories are free to host, private repositories require a paid subscription. GitHub introduced the concept of the ‘pull request’ where code changes done in branches by contributors can be reviewed and discussed before being merged be the repository owner. https://github.com/ syncing process and/or what will need to change on GitHub.
– core.git.wordpress.org
– develop.git.wordpress.org
– backpress.git.wordpress.org
– bbpress.git.wordpress.org
– buddypress.git.wordpress.org
– glotpress.git.wordpress.org
– meta.git.wordpress.org

Can we make the change to our git mirrors please?

Once this is done, the next step is to update the default branch in GitHubGitHub GitHub is a website that offers online implementation of git repositories that can easily be shared, copied and modified by other developers.

Howdy @dd32.

I’m doing some testing for this request, but I’d like to ask something before we proceed further. Are you asking for the master branch to be moved (--move) to trunk, or will it meet your requirements if we simply create a new branch called trunk?

Thanks!

  Apologies for the delay in response. I don’t have enough git knowledge here, but I assume a --move operation would be expected.
  
  I believe creating a new branch would also be okay, if it contained the exact same commit hashes, I think that’s how git works at least?

    Hi @dd32 and @jorbin,
    
    The master branches have been moved to trunk. I’ve also updated the post-receive hook for wp-develop. That’s the only post-receive hook script that we have. I believe the other repos are pulled from GitHubGitHub GitHub is a website that offers online implementation of git repositories that can easily be shared, copied and modified by other developers.

    Please take a look and let me know if there’s anything unexpected.

      Hi @chadworthman, it seems like the trunk branch for WordPress develop doesn’t get updated: https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop/commits/trunk
      Any idea what’s missing here?

        Hi @ocean90,
        
        I just noticed an error in a regex in the post-receive script. It’s been fixed. The next commit should sync. Thanks for the heads up.

        Thanks! Looks like it’s still not synced though, there was a new commit ~1.5 hours ago:

Hi @dd32 and @sergeybiryukov,

Looks like the syncs to trunk are working now. GithubGitHub GitHub is a website that offers online implementation of git repositories that can easily be shared, copied and modified by other developers. Public repositories are free to host, private repositories require a paid subscription. GitHub introduced the concept of the ‘pull request’ where code changes done in branches by contributors can be reviewed and discussed before being merged be the repository owner. https://github.com/ admins will need to change the default branch from master to trunk.

Thanks to @762e5e74 for helping me troubleshoot.

  Just confirming that the sync is working now. Thanks!
