Interesting. I saw one other post few days back(don't have link handy). OP had contributed for 100 days. Question to you(and others) How do you select projects for that?
- ionforce 12y agoAs I currently understand it, any commit you push to the main branch (so not wip/feature branches) will count towards your activity graph being filled out. This includes projects in your own repo. So I'm assuming you were referring to the possible difficulty of finding and selecting projects to contribute to. You can also contribute to ones of your own.
- rtpg 12y agoAlso the chart backfills, so if you work in a feature branch and it gets merged into a main branch, github looks at the dates of your commits and uses that.
- phalgun_g 12y agoalso what if your pull request doesn't get merged?
- jaxbot 12y agoYou still get your local contribution; merges are counted as contributions by the person who presses merge. It makes sense in terms of what really happens in terms of Git, I guess.
- jaxbot 12y agoAs I mentioned in the comments on my site (not sure if you're the same poster), I work on a lot of personal projects, as well as any open source software I use or want to try out, but have issues with that I can fix. It's interesting to be able to resolve other peoples' issues. Gives you that warm fuzzy feeling.
