Description

When adding users in Gitea, the name can not contain spaces.
This is a bit awkward as we have all names configured with spaces, and this works without problems in GIT and TeamCity.

There's a difference between username and fullname, one can't create a username with space on GitHub or other sites either. You can however set the fullname to whatever you want :)

Then I find the help on https://help.github.com/articles/setting-your-username-in-git/ very confusing, in the example "Mona Lisa" is used as a user name.

username != user name. username is name to sign in to system whilst user name is the name of the user. The setting configured in the example is the user name.
