The point was that there is no "Fixes" tag added above your SoB, but you
mentioned that there was one in your changelist. Identify the commit
that you're fixing (use git blame for example) and then add it to the
commit text above your SoB in the correct format.
# git log -1 --format='Fixes: %h ("%s")' $commit
