CONTRIBUTING.md should propose a correct branch name for new users submitting PR's, i.e. the naming convention `bug-<issue#>-<description>` or `feature-<issue#>-<description>`.
The GitHub PR template has been modified slightly as there was a `>` missing.
Every PR should be accompanied by tests that showcase the item fixed or new
feature. If a PR is not accompanied by tests, then there should be reason as
to why. In some (rare) cases, some PRs may just be documentation changes and
these won't required test changes.
