Sure, it's not that important though as it's just missing one digit. For
the record, this is what I have in my .gitconfig :

[alias]
fixes = log -1 --format=fixes

[pretty]
fixes = Fixes: %h (\"%s\")

[core]
abbrev = 12

and then you just do 'git fixes <sha>' and it spits out the line for the
commit without needing to count anything and eliminates this error.
