commit: quote the user name in the example
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.
