Hi! You're almost ready to make the next great TypeScript library.

Would you like it to be called "typescript-axios"? [Yes/No]:  yes

Thanks for the info. The last few changes are being made... hang tight!

In this situation, the git username extracted by the command git config user.name is " AzureAD\xxx", in which there is a prefix "AzureAD\" including a back slash. This leads to a misformed package.json file due to the back slash in the field of "author". To solve this error, you can set the git username globally by git config --global user.name "USERNAME", then everything will be fine..
