Re: [PATCH] "master" should be treated no differently from any other branch

quoted

have a convention here than configurability. You would not want "git" to
be called "guitar" for some users, just because they happen to like that
name more, either, right?

You're correct; but we're talking about branch names not program names.

And the analogy is flawed.  I don't want git to be called guitar, however I'd 
be very upset if I got
  
 $ mv git guitar
 Error: git is conventionally called guitar
