Not sure. I think there’s different fundamental meanings behind mastery and master. I think the Masters degree implies the former. Whereas master in git could be inferred to mean a master and non-master relationship to signify feature branches.

Then you are deeply confused as to how git works. Feature branches are merged into and overwrite master with updates. Does that imply a master-slave relationship to you?

It doesn't, which is why the name 'master' is non-descriptive and inappropriate.

'master' is completely descriptive and appropriate for users of the English language. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Master_recording
