Commit format:
(#GH_ISSUE) Make the example in CONTRIBUTING imperative and concrete.
Without this patch applied the example commit message in the CONTRIBUTING
document is not a concrete example. This is a problem because the
contributor is left to imagine what the commit message should look like
based on a description rather than an example. This patch fixes the
problem by making the example concrete and imperative.
The first line is a real life imperative statement with a GitHub issue #.
The body describes the behavior without the patch, why this is a problem,
and how the patch fixes the problem when applied.
