Github default branch

[eric-haibin-lin]

Should gluonnlp display the latest stable release branch as the default branch on Github? I came across a few cases where users clones the script/notebook on github master branch, but the pip installed version is actually gluonnlp nightly.

installation from github isn't really intended for the end users. did they mention how they come across this installation channel?

The usage I came across is like:

• pip install gluonnlp
• git clone https://github.com/dmlc/gluon-nlp to get scripts, or go to the example folder on github to checkout tutorials

I see. +1 from me then. We will need to update our contribution guide and make sure that people actually clone the dev branch.
