We use the imperative for commit messages. i.e.

"The template contains a {{year}} place holder which prevents
reproducible builds. Change it to be a hardcoded value based on the
actual copyright modifications..."

This patch is 'doing' the change, it didn't do it in the past.

https://cbea.ms/git-commit/#imperative (Well, all of those points) are
my usual reference for writing commit messages.
