Update Flows: Git Tasks Now Default to main Branch in 0.21.0

Default Git Branch

Changed default Git branch name from kestra to main.

The default branch within Git tasks has been renamed from kestra to main (PR #98). Update any workflows that implicitly rely on the former default branch within PushFlows, PushNamespaceFiles, SyncNamespaceFiles.

Here is an example before and after the change.

Before 0.21.0

id: push_to_git
namespace: system


tasks:
  - id: commit_and_push
    type: io.kestra.plugin.git.PushFlows
    gitDirectory: _flows
    url: https://github.com/kestra-io/scripts # required string
    username: git_username # required string needed for Auth with Git
    password: "{{ secret('GITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN') }}"
    branch: main # optional, uses "kestra" by default

After 0.21.0

id: push_to_git
namespace: system


tasks:
  - id: commit_and_push
    type: io.kestra.plugin.git.PushFlows
    gitDirectory: _flows
    url: https://github.com/kestra-io/scripts # required string
    username: git_username # required string needed for Auth with Git
    password: "{{ secret('GITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN') }}"
    branch: main # optional, uses "main" by default
