A descriptive PR title will help the community better triage and review your changes. Make sure to prefix with the name(s) of the package/subdirectory/domain that your PR updates. Following any of these examples will help:

* "opentelemetry-sdk: make test_force_flush_late_by_timeout less flaky on pypy/windows"
* "opentelemetry-exporter-otlp-proto-http: enable typechecking"
* "docs: replace TODO placeholders with API and SDK overview descriptions"
* "feat(config): Add TracerProvider support for declarative config"

Pull requests are also tested for their compatibility with packages distributed
by OpenTelemetry in the [OpenTelemetry Python Contrib Repository](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-python.git).
