Oh man. I was thinking they'd probably patch that but ... how could they?

Only show contributions with GPG signed commits
GPG is the solution. It’s so easy to use.

You are both right and wrong at the same time
I'm actually shocked that's an issue.
I assumed they were recording actions taken via the github UI and APIs, not the git commit log. If someone merges a pull request you opened, poof, you contributed the lines merged from that pull request regardless of the git author line. Same if you run `git push` with your github login credentials.
Apart from attributing things to the wrong person, git author line seems like it must also have the issue of not attributing things at all. What if I signed up with a different email address than I use for git?
I'm not sure how helpful it is but you can add additional email addresses to your account here: https://github.com/settings/emails

So gonna use this to game my gihub account honestly. At least it can make saying "I'm a team player" much easier.
