Hi Yuan,

Thank you for looking into this and providing the related links.

I don't have write access to create branches:

(⎈|rancher-desktop:default)➜  mongo git:(manfontan/SERVER-80230) git push origin manfontan/SERVER-80230 
ERROR: Write access to repository not granted.
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

I am not a developer so I don't have my laptop configured to push commits to 10gen/mongo. And I haven't done the Server & Query Onboarding. 

I don't think it would be a good use of my time to go through the developer onboarding for such a simple change.

If someone can provide a step by step process to createa PR that does not require to go through the Developer onboarding, so it works fine with evergreen I am glad to update/create it. Otherwise I think it is better to just ask a developer to do the changes.

As constructive feedback I only want to mention that it is super easy to get this wrong. Which makes contributing unappealing.

I have created a new PR with the suggestions from the existing one.

The links are still broken in the mongo github repo README. Looks like the PR was closed without merging. So this is not fixed yet.
