Excellent! This looks much better, thanks @theodorewahle

@austince happy to merge this?

[austince]

This looks great! @theodorewahle, could you just edit your commit message to something like docs: add extended request method explanations and then force push up?

git commit --amend # change the message
git push --force # assuming your branch is set as upstream

@austince just FYI we can use "squash and merge" to alter commits in these situations, rather than burden contributors with our commit style.

[austince]

@keithamus, I'm game for that - should we remove the validate-commit-msg status check then?

[keithamus]

@austince the validate-commit-msg check is not a required check, and so you're able to merge without it passing. I've kept it specifically not-required to allow for that scenario.
