First the subject should start, after "[PATCH 1/1][Outreachy]", with
the area of the code you are changing followed by ":", so here "add:"
(no need for ".c").

Also even if the subject gives a lot of information already, it's
better to use the body of the commit message to give a bit more
context and details. For example here either the subject or the body
of the commit message should say which specific guideline(s) the patch
is enforcing.

Otherwise the patch looks good to me.

Thanks!
