I think maybe you missed the patch that started this thread, which
proposes exactly that. :)

It should point people in the right direction, but of course getting GGG
directly on git/git means that they don't have to re-make their PR on a
different repo (though I guess they'd see the template while they're
making the PR, and IIRC it's no more difficult at that point than
clicking the destination repo box at the top of the page?).

There was some discussion of that elsewhere recently:

That's where I'm at, too. I doubt I'd ever use it, because I really like
my workflow. But if it is working for other people, especially people
who might otherwise be turned off of contributing, that seems like a
good thing (as long as the quality of submissions is in the same
ballpark; I think it is, and improving the tooling should keep that
moving in the right direction).
