 > [!TIP]
 > * If you try to rename a file in a repository that you don’t have access to, we will fork the project to your personal account and help you send [a pull request](/pull-requests/reference/pull-requests) to the original repository after you commit your change.
-> * File names created via the web interface can only contain alphanumeric characters and hyphens (`-`). To use other characters, create and commit the files locally and then push them to the repository.
 > * Some files, such as images, require that you rename them from the command line. For more information, see [Renaming a file using the command line](#renaming-a-file-using-the-command-line).
 
 1. In your repository, browse to the file you want to rename.
