Allow creation of a new file with spaces in the name through the web interface
Description
When creating a new file on gitlab.com (either through the "New File" or "Upload File" screen), I receive the error:
Your changes could not be committed, because the file name can contain only letters, digits, '_', '-', '@' and '.'. Separate directories with a '/'.
The name of the file is test file. It would appear that files with spaces cannot be created through the web interface.
Proposal
Allow spaces. We're trying to use gitlab for non-git-savvy users, and this is a roadblock, as most--if not all--of their files have spaces in them.
