■ Delete local branch

git branch -d master

■ Rename local branch

git branch -m master main

■ Push the new branch, set local branch to track the new remote

git push -u origin main

git push --set-upstream origin main

■ Delete remote branch

git push origin :master

git push origin --delete master

I got this.

❯ git push origin :master
To https://github.com/your/project
 ! [remote rejected] master (refusing to delete the current branch: refs/heads/master)
error: failed to push some refs to 'https://github.com/your/project'

Switch default branch master to main at https://github.com/your/project

■ Conclusion

Repository default branch
Choose the default branch for your new personal repositories. You might want to change the default name due to different workflows, or because your integrations still require “master” as the default branch name. You can always change the default branch name on individual repositories.
