Brad Fitzpatrick c52e27e68d CONTRIBUTING: remove Pull Request bit
Also remove the "Also, please do not post patches on the issue
tracker" part, since that didn't seem to reduce the number of patches
inlined into bug reports. And now that we accept PRs, people will
probably try that first. We'll see.

Fixes #23779
Updates #18517

Contributing to Go

Go is an open source project.

It is the work of hundreds of contributors. We appreciate your help!

Before filing an issue

If you are unsure whether you have found a bug, please consider asking in the golang-nuts mailing list or other forums first. If the behavior you are seeing is confirmed as a bug or issue, it can easily be re-raised in the issue tracker.

Filing issues

Sensitive security-related issues should be reported to security@golang.org. See the security policy for details.

The recommended way to file an issue is by running go bug. Otherwise, when filing an issue, make sure to answer these five questions:

  1. What version of Go are you using (go version)?
  2. What operating system and processor architecture are you using?
  3. What did you do?
  4. What did you expect to see?
  5. What did you see instead?

For change proposals, see Proposing Changes To Go.
