Cool service! I had fun playing with the generator but have no intention of ordering a poster.
Recommendation: Allow users to generate an image and either share it on social media, or embed it in their blog. This way you at least get promotional value out of customers who do not intend to buy.

I would love to order a poster but I just cannot get over the whole -- exposing my teams private code to a 3rd party thing. Any chance you have a hosted version of this?

You could always write a script that walks the real commits of your repo and generates fake commits in a public repo with the same timestamps but no meaningful changes or commit messages.

Not yet, waiting for Github to add some fine tune permissions that would ease a lot of worry. You could always create a GIST with exactly what you're comfortable with.

Hi! Love your site. Always wondered, is it making any money?
Similar to my project https://commits.io
Shoot me an email (ortuna AT gmail) if you want to compare notes. I've done a lot of work on how to get those generation times down.
