index.html: corrected checkout command when submitting fixes
Until now, the part of 'index.html' that instructed how to submit fixes incorrectly asked users to use 'git branch -b', but this should have been 'git checkout -b'. Also, we didn't have a step to make sure the local 'maneage' branch is up to date. With this commit, both issues have been addressed. This problem was reported by Faezeh Bidjarchian.
