PlugInstall "invalid reference to master"

[andykais]

github is going through a renaming process where the default branch on many repos is changing from master to main https://github.com/github/renaming. This appears to be a problem for plug, as it hardcodes the default branch as master. I experienced this when installing vim-svelte

I am guessing this is a bug for vim-plug and not for vim-svelte & any other repos accepting the naming change. This can be fixed by setting

Plug 'evanleck/vim-svelte', { 'branch': 'main' }

but I believe several packages will run into this issue going forward
