Poem

🐇 I hopped to help, pen in paw,
A guide to share what we all saw,
Fork, branch, commit — then send a plea,
Test and tidy, joyfully,
Together we grow, code and tea.

98-98: Generalize the push command to match all branch types.

Line [98] should not assume only feature/... branches; this conflicts with your own fix/... and docs/... conventions.

Suggested doc update
-git push origin feature/your-feature-name
+git push -u origin <your-branch-name>

In `@CONTRIBUTING.md` at line 98, The doc currently hardcodes the push example as

- Around line 24-31: Replace the generic "Follow the project-specific setup
instructions" sentence and the generic bash example block with concrete,
repository-specific setup steps: list the exact package manager commands to
install dependencies (e.g., npm/yarn/pip commands used by this project), any
required global tooling or versions (Node/Python, Docker), how to create or
populate .env or config files, commands to run database migrations or seed data
(if applicable), and the exact command(s) to run tests and start the dev server;
update the section that currently contains the bash snippet so it contains these
precise commands and brief notes about prerequisites, and ensure references to
the existing phrasing "Follow the project-specific setup instructions" and the
bash example block are replaced accordingly.
- Around line 18-20: Replace the placeholder clone command lines ("git clone
https://github.com/your-username/repository-name.git" and "cd repository-name")
with the actual repository URL and directory name for the project (e.g., "git
clone https://github.com/<org-or-user>/<actual-repo>.git" and "cd
<actual-repo>"); keep the original placeholder example as an optional
alternative or add a second sample showing the placeholder form for contributors
who will fork or use their own repo. Ensure the change is made in
CONTRIBUTING.md where the clone example appears.
