This PR introduces a new "Opening a PR for Release Branch" section to the CONTRIBUTING.md document, providing clear instructions and requirements for opening pull requests targeting release branches.

It also adds a new pull request template specifically for release branch PRs. However, due to current limitations of GitHub's UI, the template's usability is somewhat limited, as users need to manually modify the URL during the PR creation process to select the template.

@Matejkob Matejkob force-pushed the release-pr-template branch 4 times, most recently from 03d4b8b to 72eb440 Compare April 20, 2024 11:06

Right now since Github does not offer users UI for choosing a pull request template this is not very useful because one has to manually edit the URL during the process of creating the PR. Although, I believe it would not harm to have this template in the repo.

Oh, nice. I didn’t know about the ability to specify a custom template. I have a script locally that hard-codes the template into the URL parameters 😉
