 ```sh
-git config --global user.name "First Last"
+git config --global user.name "First-name Surname"
 git config --global user.email "you@email.com"

 #### Git Config and Your Privacy
 
 The instructions for this exercise use the `--global` flag when identifying your `user.name` and `user.email` configuration settings. If you are currently using a computer without a private, personal account, don't apply the `--global` flag. This way, the settings will only be stored in our assignment repository. If you work in another repository on this same computer, you will need to set these configuration options again.
