Global change: don't use proper nouns when referring to git/github actions #5

GitHub doesn't capitalize things like pull request, fork, push...neither should you. E.g. "Pull requests let you tell others about changes you've pushed to a repository on GitHub. Once a pull request is sent, interested parties can review the set of changes, discuss potential modifications, and even push follow-up commits if necessary."

However, when you refer to the name of a feature or page, then use caps. E.g. "You can view and sort long-running pull requests from your repository's Pull Request page."

When in doubt, check their docs.
