The sign-off procedure is not about giving credits to you. It is to protect us from others (e.g. your employer) by having a record that you claimed that you had the authority to give us the change. For a single-liner change like this, this often does not matter in practice, but we try to be consistent as it makes everybody's life simpler to have a single procedure for all the patches. Thanks

... So I think the right commit message is something like: We call File::Temp's "tempfile" function as a class method, but it was never designed to be called this way. Older versions seemed to tolerate it, but as of File::Temp 0.23, it blows up like this: $ git svn fetch 'tempfile' can't be called as a method at .../Git.pm line 1117. Fix it by calling it as a regular function, just inside the File::Temp namespace.Sounds about right.quoted
