The issue is that I submitted the develop branch for analysis by sonarqube, so it is currently identifying two branches: master and develop.

Because of this I can’t change the name for the develop branch.
But if I delete the develop branch I lose all its analysis history, right? This history is very important.

How can I change sonarqube’s main branch to develop without losing the analysis history of that branch?

Hey there.

Today, there’s no way to non-destructively change the main branch to another branch. We hope to have a solution for v9.5, and I welcome you to add your vote on our roadmap.

Hey Colin, everything all right?

So, I’ll be waiting and hoping that this option really comes in the next version.
