If you look at "git log" output, you would notice that people write something like

	Helped-by: Michael Haggerty <mhagger@alum.mit.edu>

before your S-o-b: line for a case like this.

We can see that you are replacing tmpname with pack_tmp_name in warning without you writing on the subject line. The commit log is where you explain *why* that change is the right thing to do. And that is totally lacking in this message.
