One way to find that out is to be ''methodical'': we can open the urls.py file in a text editor. Since it maps web URLs into Python code that gets run, it is the starting point of how requests get dispatched in the OpenHatch source. Then you open up the appropriate view, find the template file it loads, and then you'll know what to edit.
Honestly, that sounds like a lot of work. I usually just ''search'' instead
I'll warn you, though, that OpenHatch code can seem to be a sprawling mess. We'll use the "git grep" command to search it.
Before you start using it, tell it who you are. When you do a commit, git will store this information in the repository.
<div class="terminal"><pre>
$ git config --global user.name "Your name"
$ git config --global user.email "your.email.address@example.com"
</pre></div>
