Hi In CONTRIBUTING.md I think you should consider changing the instructions to recommend HTTPS over plain Git for cloning - there’s no server verification with Git, whereas HTTPS does this using CAs, plus depending on where you are the Git protocol may not even work, whereas HTTPS generally works everywhere. Pushing via HTTPS requires your GitHub password and this is good for code integrity.
HTTPS is also GitHub's recommended protocol for cloning repos.
