This is cool but we probably need a TODO to add something about PRs in github

I would like to do this as a separate PR, the references to perlbug are extensive.

Removed the 'Committing your changes' section from perlgit since it contains the same information as the preceding section, aside from a link to perlhack that I added to the preceding section. |
…ical repository (#1186) * Update repository and bugtracker URLs to GitHub in makemeta regen META files * Update POD and comments to reference GitHub as canonical repository * Update Porting/corelist.pl to recognize GitHub issue tracker * remove "A note on camel and dromedary" * Remove redundant 'Committing your changes' section (cherry picked from commit 47ef154)
These changes are primarily to POD and comments.
The "Merging from a branch via GitHub" section is removed because it's not really relevant when GitHub is the standard repository.
I'm not sure what to do with the "A note on camel and dromedary" section in perlgit or the "Read access via rsync" section in perlhack.
References to cloning via HTTP being "slower" were removed as I see no evidence of this with the GitHub repository.
Additional updates are needed to reference the GitHub pull request workflow, I may work on this in a future patch.
Updating documentation to reference using GitHub to submit bug reports (other than the metadata entry) is not part of this patch and will be a significant undertaking that needs to start with the perlbug utility.
