@cesar-ca You are right about the link (not sure where I got that link from?).
The fix here would be to update the file contributing.rst under “Video Resources” section, adding this note:
The goal here is that when contributors are setting up their environment, they should replace
master
tomain
.It will be a while before @amueller and I record new videos.
Sorry for the people who came before me, but a doc change doesn’t need that long to implement~
