I'm usually not mistaken when I write something in a commit message.  :-)

One of the very first commits I made was to fix something forgotten
even longer ago by someone else.  I added a "Forgotten-by:" tag and
was accused of falsely blaming a specific person in a commit message.
I realized later that I was so accused not because I was wrong, but
because I hadn't listed enough explicit historical references, so it
only seemed wrong.
