The name and address on this line come from your commit object,
which in turn would have came from your configuration. You have
[user]
name = Naomi
email = naomi.ibeh69@xxxxxxxxx
somewhere in your configuration file, perhaps in $HOME/.gitconfig or
somewhere. When contributiong to this project, you want that "name"
line to also include your family name, as it should match what you
write on your Signed-off-by: line. A focused way to do so without
affecting your author identity for other projects is to add
[user]
name = Naomi Ibe
in .git/config of the repository that you use to contribute to this
project, e.g.,
$ cd ... to the working tree of your clone of git you work in ...
$ git config user.name "Naomi Ibe"
The space above your Sign off is to fill the details you omitted on
the title of the message (which would say something about "conform
to guidelines" or "clean up" without mentioning what rule the
original violates), making the whole thing something like:
builtin/add.c: clean up die() messages
As described in the CodingGuidelines document, a single line
message given to die() and its friends should not capitalize its
first word, and should not add full-stop at the end.

Thanks. Otherwise the patch looks good.
