First steps

  1. Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
  2. Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
  3. Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
  4. Open a pull request that references the issue number.

Research direction

Start with the GitHub pull-request merge notification handling and compare its output with the linked GitHub example. Done means merge notifications are no longer unnecessarily verbose, optional content can be collapsed or omitted, and HTML comments are not shown literally.
