The master race condition
(aussie.zone)
Post funny things about programming here! (Or just rant about your favourite programming language.)
This. To avoid the "master" branch on our git to be associated with "slave" I now name new branches "bitch"
There aren't "slaves" in git, though. The term "master" in that context is that of a master copy.
And a master copy is used to produce slaves - though slave isn't widespread in version control it's still quite present in databases. And it all comes from the same Master/Slave naming habit.
It doesn't. See: master tapes and the mastering process.
Sorry, the maining process.
