Thanks Ben for the background information, although it's not mentioned I'm assuming the reason for the space in the name check (which I'm personally fine with) is because of spammers? And it's probably a really easy way to catch easy mistakes like git using the name of the current user when it's not set up. I'm going to save this information for later, it would be helpful to write up a resource on this - especially the email part which is in my opinion is a really important requirement. Thanks, Josh
