Rejiggering the branches

I prefer dev over main, since it’s more clear about the purpose of the branch. Main is just not a very descriptive word. For one thing, for most people, stable will actually be the “main” branch.

This isn’t a strong preference, but honestly I doubt anyone has that strong of feelings on the subject.

best,
phoebe
