SubjectRe: [PATCH] checkpatch: add dedicated checker for 'Fixes:' tag
From
Date
> length, so I think it is better to add dedicated checker for 'Fixes:' TAG.

I suggest to reconsider also this wording once more.

* 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?

Regards,
Markus
