This issue is pretty self-explanatory. Instead of using the name "master", the default branch should be named "main".

This is consistent with the actions taken by major tech leaders, including GitHub itself, to begin phasing out the use of potentially-harmful terminology in tech.

See revelc/formatter-maven-plugin#177

I am getting "Workspace Closed Error" with the latest version (2.7.1) of this plugin. Please, see details below:

According to the currently opened issues, automatic discovery is not trivial to implement. In the mean time, a short explaination about how to perform manual installation would be really helpful. Manually installing the configurator plugin in Eclipse is not enough to get the it working.

The Maven coordinates for this project are a bit weird. They have embedded the groupId in them, and do not indicate that they are an m2e configurator. The artifactIds should probably be renamed.

I do not know the impact this would have on the resulting Eclipse artifacts, or what the normal naming conventions are for an m2e configurator or Eclipse plugin/feature. Even if there are restrictions or conventions which need to be followed for the Eclipse artifacts, it seems like it should still be possible, with some clever Maven trickery to use better Maven coordinates.

This m2e extension should be added to https://github.com/takari/m2e-discovery-catalog to be able to automatically install this once the formatter-maven-plugin is detected.
