I tried changing my repository ([pathikg/DogLLaMA · Hugging Face](https://huggingface.co/pathikg/DogLLaMA)) but I am receiving format issues even though I am using supported symbols

Hi @pathikg Can you please check to make sure there aren’t any spaces at the beginning or ending of the new name and try changing the name once more?
