I've not seen projects actually renaming their main branch. Usually it's only applied to new repos.
I'm actually surprised it hadn't changed in git already. GitLab/GitHub switched years ago so I thought it had been already done.

master/main change
From the ~1500 repositories mirrored, ~120 needed the fix-up when i checked them in 2024, among them are libinput, wayland, weston, plymouth, pango, glib, gtk+, ModemManager, NetworkManager, mesa, zlib, htop. Most of the fixes are master -> main.
