* Would you like to take another information better into account? https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst?id=6a8b55ed4056ea5559ebe4f6a4b247f627870d4c#n177
“… You should also be sure to use at least the first twelve characters … …”
* Is the information questionable also from the parenthesised text in the error message from the Perl code?
