We normally write subject lines as "<subsystem>: <description",
hence that would be:

userdiff: add built-in pattern for CSS

This text wasn't properly wrapped. Please wrap around 72 columns (M-q on Emacs,
or google "text wrap $youreditor" for others).

Also, saying _what_ your patch does is not the most important question here.
Focus on the _why_ in the commit message.

(We had a real-life off-list discussion about this and I agree that it's a
sensible behavior, but others may disagree)

This doesn't add much to the patch (we can already see that from the patch
itself). I'd remove it.

Missing sign-off (yours, and you can add mine to mark the fact that I allow
you to contribute to Git as part of your student project).
