* 9.5 branching?

The postgresql repository has branched of the REL9_5_STABLE branch. For
the time being, the "9.5" branch in the messages repository is still master.
I was wondering, would it be easier if we also branched off
REL9_5_STABLE in messages right now?
We could just ignore the master branch for now and later on fork it off
REL9_5_STABLE (instead of the other way around, which is what we'd
usually do).
(We could also blow away the master branch altogether and recreate it
later, but I don't know what that would do to new checkouts in the
meantime, because we don't have access to set the default branch on the
git.postgresql.org hosting.)

I don't really care either way because by now I'm used to the way we do
things, but I have the recollection that having "master" not follow
upstream's master is confusing. However, I'm not sure that it makes a
lot of sense to branch "master" from REL9_5_STABLE.

I think it might be useful to offer a way to change the default branch
using the web interface. Let me ask the sysadmin dudes. What would be
the git command to change the default branch?

Because it's at odds with what normally you do in Git, but I guess it
doesn't really matter.

Okay, so currently would be this:
git symbolic-ref HEAD refs/heads/REL9_4_STABLE
right?

I have changed the default branch to refs/heads/REL9_4_STABLE. Not
great, because you don't get 9.5 anymore in a default checkout. Feel
free to create the REL9_5_STABLE branch and remove master, and I can
re-point default branch to that.
