+        When asking questions or reporting issues, it is very helpful if you can include:
+
+        - Aider version
+        - Model being used (`gpt-4-xxx`, etc)
+        - Other switches or config settings that are active
+
+        The easiest way to do this is just just copy & paste the announcement lines that aider prints when you launch it, like these:
+
+        ```
+        Aider v0.21.2-dev
+        Model: gpt-4-0613 using diff edit format
+        Git repo: .git with 134 files
+        Repo-map: using 1024 tokens
+        Use /help to see in-chat commands, run with --help to see cmd line args
+        ```        
+  - type: textarea
+    attributes:
+      label: Version and model info
+      description: Please include the aider version, model name and other config/switches in effect.
