s/Juno/Junio/

But commits are usually just listed as-is without mentioning authors or other metadata. Something like this:[1]

    ae72f685418 (count-objects -v: show number of packs as well.,
    2006-12-27) added `packs` to the output of `-v`.  0bdaa12169b
    (git-count-objects.txt: describe each line in -v output, 2013-02-08)
    forgot to include `packs`.

The text above is a bit more terse around the commit references since the subject line for the second commit says what the intent was.

Alternatively, just referencing the second commit:

    0bdaa12169b (git-count-objects.txt: describe each line in -v output,
    2013-02-08) forgot to include `packs`.

† 1: using “commit-reference” from Documentation/SubmittingPatches
