Why is my git on Windows is weird with main branches

  • It tries its best to default to master.
  • it always creates a master branch.
  • it throws a bunch of errors when trying to push to main.
  • I always have to do some random fiddling to make it work with the main branch, but at least once I made master the main one instead.
  • it ruined a few releases of mine, by publishing the older branch.
  • apparently this is very abnormal, and no one saw things like this.
  • every time I initialize a new repo, I make sure to run a git clone to initialize it on my PC, which is called main, then it defaults to master for no known reason.
  • checked the .gitconfig file, and nothing unusual.
