Error from missing default_branch from GitLab

pub default_branch: String,

I'm getting errors that the default_branch is missing from the returned data from GitLab. Odd, but perhaps then git-cliff should take this into account. My token has the scopes read_api and read_repository, which I would think should be enough. I propose changing the required field to an Option<String> and when it will be used it can be unwrapped to some default value.

Thanks for reporting!

Yes, we should definitely fix this and use Option<String>.
