Cover letter [PATCH v2 0/9] Prepare for changing the default branch name main (last manual part)

In preparation for changing the default of init.defaultBranch to main, here are a couple of manual adjustments that cannot be automated (i.e., these adjustments are not mere search-and-replaces).

This patch series is based on js/default-branch-name-part-3, and is part of the larger effort tracked at https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git/pull/655.

The next patch series will be largely automated search-and-replaces; Obviously, the search-and-replace was the easy part, the manual inspection whether the changes are actually correct was much more involved.

What to expect next, after this patch series? Essentially, there is the large patch series that adjusts the entire test suite, with two patch series extracted from that effort: t5411 and t5515 simply require too large patches, and will therefore be presented as the next patch series after this one.

Changes since v1:

* The t4013 patch was moved out of this patch series, to be re-submitted at a later date, to avoid clashing with other patches in seen.
* The commit message of 'fmt-merge-msg: also suppress "into main" by default' was adjusted to mention that we do the same for main as we do for master.
* The t5703 patch now uses rain instead of none, to be closer to the default branch name.
* The glob in t6200 was tightened to avoid matching maint.
* The commit message of 't3200: prepare for main being shorter than master' stopped talking about main2 (which itself was a left-over from a previous iteration of a previous patch series).

In preparation for changing the default branch name to main, let's
- skip the suffix "into main" in merge commit messages.

@@ Commit message

In the test case adjusted by this patch, we want to cut just after the longest shown ref name. Since main is shorter than master, we need
- to decrease the number of characters. Since main2 is shown, too, and
+ to decrease the number of characters. Since topic is shown, too, and
since that is only one character shorter than master, we decrement the
- length by one.
+ length by one instead of two.
