Hello.

Few weeks ago, I noticed we have a new remote branch that follows origin/master:
https://gcc.gnu.org/git/?p=gcc.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/trunk

Do we know who added it? And what was the motivation?
Thanks,
Martin

I did; I've always preferred that name (for metaphorical consistency
with 'branch'), and there's been a wider move away from 'master' in
git repositories.  I figured we could support both easily enough, but
the hooks still need updating to treat 'trunk' the same way they treat
'master'.
