The change of the default branch
As of Git Extras 6.4 the assumed default branch name changed from master to main.
This affects the Git Extras commands git archive-file, git delete-merged-branches, git delta, git pull-request, git show-merged-branches, git show-unmerged-branches, and git squash.
To change the default branch name to master: change either the configuration git-extras.default-branch or init.defaultBranch to master; the former takes precedence.
For example, git config git-extras.default-branch master.
