What's wrong with this Challenge?

Question

It's super simple, the challenge says to change .git to a .svg and I can't get it to work. Is it me or the is there a glitch in the Matrix?

That technically should/would work but the challenge is looking back at how to insert an SVG object. Look back at the previous video at about the 3:00 mark. Hope that helps!

The challenge says to replace the img tag with the correct mark-up for the SVG object. That would mean using the <object> tag, as shown in the video, and then providing a <img> fallback for older browsers. Not sure the fallback is part of that first step, but not as simple as replacing 'gif' with 'svg'.
