Hi!
> Create pull request template to inform people that we prefer patches to
> our mailing list. We have this info in README.md, but even experienced,
> who send patches with git send-email to other projects overlook this
> info and open github pull requests.
> 
> While at it, add links to the test case tutorial, lore and patchwork.
> 
> Template does not support any formatting, therefore using plain links.

So this text is filled in the pull request as a message when user
creates it, right?

I guess that this is a creative misuse but I kind of like it :-).
