I don't think this trailer is a standard one. Also, the "fixes" doesn't
really explain much. Perhaps you meant something like

    In 606e088d5d (update-index: add --show-index-version, 2023-09-12),
    we added the new '--show-index-version' option and documented it,
    but forgot to add it to the synopsis section. Do so now.

?

Hi Linus,

Thank you for looking at this patch.

I saw it in Linux kernel patches. From [1]:

    A Fixes: tag indicates that the patch fixes an issue in a previous
    commit. It is used to make it easy to determine where a bug
    originated, which can help review a bug fix. This tag also assists
    the stable kernel team in determining which stable kernel versions
    should receive your fix. This is the preferred method for indicating
    a bug fixed by the patch.

But I now understand it is not used in git patches; sorry about that.

Yes, the explicit explanation is clearer. Thank you.

I'll submit a v2 with a clearer commit message.
