More specifically, Github's rules for what counts as a contribution are bullshit.
- Not counting commits made in forks disincentivizes prospective Open Source patches.
- Not counting commits made in branches discourages the best practice of working in a branch and only merging to master once the work is fully complete.
On the one hand, you can say, if you think they're bullshit, why bother looking at them โ and that's a fair point. I encourage people to not care about the GitHub Contributions graph if that's at all an option for them.
However, for me, the contributions graph provides an easy way to track
a personal goal โ to make at least one Open Source-related commit a
day, however large or small. It's an easy and public way to hold
myself accountable to my goal. So, in order to make that happen, when
I make a change that isn't counted, I'll make a note in this README
file, and push that change up. Problem solved.
