[PATCH] commit: quote the user name in the example

From: Matt Kraai <kraai@ftbfs.org>

If the user runs

 git config --global user.name Your Name

as suggested, user.name will be set to "Your". With this patch, the suggested command will be

 git config --global user.name "Your Name"

which will set user.name to "Your Name" and hopefully help users avoid the former mistake.
