Repo Defaults like privat=true and branch=main

Hi, I am trying to figure out how I can set defaults for new repositories. If I create a new one I want that the default branch is main not master and the repo is private.

Hi @bw9ubwo! In terms of default branch name, you could change that in Git config for the user running Soft Serve git config --global init.defaultBranch main.

You need to use the -p flag on the SSH command-line interface ssh your-soft-server repo create -p repo-name to create private repositories.
If you're the only one using the server, and don't care about multiple users, you could change the server anon-access to no-access and allow-keyless to false. Refer to the authentication section for more information.
