Contributions [commits] not showing up on green box graphic

[kitfud]

I've made a variety of commits to public repos over the past week- all of which have updated my repos as expected. However, the contribution graph with the little green squares is not updating or showing record of a contribution.

@kitfud is there a chance you are working on some kind of the feature branch, not on the main?

i believe there is an option to choose which branch to use to count contributions.

i.e. contributions will appear once you merge feature branch into main one, or change default branch to use to count contributions inside repo settings(it is main by default).

Thanks for the reply- I have been working on the main branch for many weeks with this issue. It's possible that with my new computer the email is not detected but that makes no sense because I am still able to push to my repos as usual from VS code, and I sign in to Github and all of that. There is only one of my repos where I worked with a group of people and even then my merges into master (into my own repo) do not show up as a green box. Was hoping GitHub support would be able to see my issue since I would have thought it would be an issue issue to solve- especially after having this issue up for multiple months now. Good job GitHub you guys are really on top of it!
