I don't understand, what is wrong with the fixes: tag here?

$ git show -s --abbrev-commit --abbrev=12 --pretty=format:"%h (\"%s\")%n" a6a9be9270c87
a6a9be9270c8 ("selftests: firmware: return Kselftest Skip code for skipped tests")

How does that not match up?

Ah, an extra "for" in there.  Luis, you need to fix up your scripts, and
not be forced to manually type in those lines :)

thanks,
