It doesn't install if user.name is not configured. IMHO it would be better to skip the tests

t/project/badge.t
t/project/static_install.t

and warn the user at the time of the first usage on a project, if and only if the user name is essential (I doubt). The installation also takes a very long time in the case of FAIL.

It should also mentioned in the tutorial as first sentence in the chapter Installing and not after

For best usabilty provide the command

git config --global user.name "Your Name"
