body: <p>Is it safe to delete the local master branch?</p>
  
  <p>Given: My workflow does not use local master branch. No local commits on local master.</p>
  
  <p>I do not have any use for local master branch. Does git itself depend on existence on master branch? E.g. Can git command fail if no local master branch is present?</p>
  
  <p>Context: I will always create feature branch from origin/master and push it (optionally deleting it). I am lazy to keep local master updated, but not comfortable keeping local master behind origin/master. See the dilemma?! :)</p>
