I tested this using both lower and upper case 'c' with the following commit text:
Derp, derpy derp. Derps derpy derpy derp derp derp derp. Some other text besides derp. Stuff.
11 chars, SHOULD FAIL due to size commit 1234567890a
12 chars, SHOULD FAIL with missing commit info warning commit 1234567890ab
13 chars, SHOULD FAIL with missing commit info warning commit 1234567890abc
14 chars, SHOULD FAIL with missing commit info warning commit 1234567890abcd
11 chars, SHOULD FAIL due to size commit 1234567890a, xxxx
12 chars, SHOULD FAIL with missing commit info warning commit 1234567890ab, yyyy
13 chars, SHOULD FAIL with missing commit info warning commit 1234567890abc, yyyy
14 chars, SHOULD FAIL with missing commit info warning commit 1234567890abcd, yyyy
commit 1234567890f ("11 chars, separated into two lines SHOULD FAIL")
commit 1234567890af ("12 chars, separated into two lines")
commit 1234567890abf ("13 chars, separated into two lines")
commit 1234567890abcf ("14 chars, separated into two lines")
commit 1234567890f ("11 chars, one line SHOULD FAIL")
commit 1234567890af ("12 chars, one line")
commit 1234567890abf ("13 chars, one line")
commit 1234567890abcf ("14 chars, one line")
P. ----8<----
I put together a patch with an incorrect format and the following error was returned by checkpatch.pl:
ERROR: Please use 12 or more chars for the git commit ID like: 'Commit 09ec54429c6d ("clocksource: Move cycle_last validation to core code")' Commit 09ec54429c6d10f87d1f084de53ae2c1c3a81108, clocksource: Move
As can be seen by the output the commit ID length is accurate, and it is the formatting that is generating an error. The message is confusing and should be separated into two warnings, one for the git commit ID length, and the other for the format.

[v2]: Add separate messages for warnings instead of one global format warning. [v3]: Add check for improperly formatted git ids as well. --- scripts/checkpatch.pl | 26 ++++++++++++++++---------- 1 file changed, 16 insertions(+), 10 deletions(-)
