You need a log message.  The whole thing should not be in the subject
line.  The description of the change should be written in the imperative,
that is Fix instead of Fixed.  But in any case Fix is not a good word to
use because it does not explain what you have done.  What fix have you
implemented.  The log message should explain what you have done and why.

Please carefully read the entire page:

Please check your patch against what is suggested.
