Ah it's because you truncated the commit ID from the right instead of from
the left. Truncated commit IDs are valid from the left, not from the right.
In your case, the commit is 6cc7aaed70c96c3933fbacbad582fc79b7d6e335
("e1000e: do not toggle LANPHYPC value bit when PHY reset is blocked"), so
the truncated ID is 6cc7aae, not b7d6e335. It's important to fix that in
your commit messages so that a "git show" works correctly (it failed for me
for this precise reason).

Thanks,
Willy
