Fixes #8543

What changes did you make?

  • Created new template file .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/issue-making-populate-github-handle-for-project.md in which the markdown from this comment was appended to the issue's indicated YAML front matter to create the GitHub epic issue template.
  • While copying the linked issue's YAML front matter into the new template file, I corrected a syntax error present in the source text: an unescaped apostrophe in the about: field.

Why did you make the changes (we will use this info to test)?

  • We need to create a template to make an epic issue for each project that has github-handle variables to be populated
  • The about: field in the linked issue's YAML front matter contained an unescaped apostrophe, which broke the YAML string syntax and caused parsing to fail. As a result the template was not appearing as a selectable option when creating a new issue.

I noticed #8543 's Overview mentions the template should reference the GitHub-handle spreadsheet and have the person using the epic fill it out, but that step isn't present in the linked comment I copied from. I'm happy to add an action item for it, or perhaps it's handled elsewhere, either way I figured I should flag it.
