From: Teng Long <dyroneteng@xxxxxxxxx> The output maybe become confused to recognize if the user accidentally mistook an extra opening space, like: $git commit --fixup=" 6d6360b67e99c2fd82d64619c971fdede98ee74b" fatal: could not lookup commit 6d6360b67e99c2fd82d64619c971fdede98ee74b and it will be better if we surround the %s specifier with single quotes.
