GitHub branch configuration

[GitMensch]

I suggest to do the following:

• change default branch to gcos4gnucobol-3.x
• add branch protection to master and gnucobol-3.x

[nberth]

I agree the purpose of this repository is mainly about branch gcos4gnucobol-3.x.
@lefessan do you think protecting branches master and gnucobol-3.x would break your mechanics for importing upstream branches?

[GitMensch]

@lefessan do you think protecting branches master and gnucobol-3.x would break your mechanics for importing upstream branches?

Just a friendly ping @lefessan; whatever your answer is, I think we can close this issue afterwards (while this still brings in the question about switching to the gnucobol3 repo instead; we can definitely drop gnucobol2 already).

[lefessan]

Unfortunately, I don't think I can protect the branches as the sync process pushes directly into these branches.

I am going to push a base branch (maybe with another name than gcos4gnucobol) with the git-related commits.

[GitMensch]

Would it be useful for the gnucobol3 repo to re-import (if not possible otherwise) with enabled committer translation? Just have a look the history nberth committing is not nberth :-)

[lefessan]

It's a bit weird, I didn't do anything different from the previous gnucobol repo, committer translation was better done the first time. Ok, I will need to investigate what changed and how it can be fixed...

[GitMensch]

Ping @lefessan the current mirroring seem to not translate (any more?)
Neither sf-mensch nor ddeclerck are transformed in the git branches

Note: if you haven't the translation from "chaat" to @chuck-haatvedt you may want to add it.
