Discussion on Broken Links & References related to renaming of Master to Main Branch

See original GitHub issue

🐞 Problem The current renaming of the master branch to the main branch lead to different integrated services not working as intended. These have broken some links & services which needs fixing. An example may include Issue #1117. Current the following things according to me have been affected:

  • Binder Repository
  • License on README
  • index.ipynb file givings unknown type errors
  • COPYING file
  • Azure pipeline (is redirected accordingly but we need to change it)
  • Poliastro/Validiation workflow needs to be redirected to the correct branch
  • Alternative method of installation via Zip file
  • Other 🤔

💡 Possible solutions Each & Every change needs to be made accordingly. These need to be classified according to the permissions on the repo & can be included to make Good First Issues. Others that are not either GFI or permission locked, I will be making a PR with the required FIX where ever possible.

📋 Steps to solve the problem Each problem needs to be accounted for here & hence be checked accordingly to migrate all master branch references to main branch for successful renaming.
