I'm facing an issue where my commits aren't showing in the contribution section. I've checked push, email, and waited, but no luck. Can you help?

Make sure that u are allowing contributions to appear in your profile settings

My repository is public so I should automatically show

I have the same problem. I pushed a few commits to one of my public repositories. I have made sure that I correctly config my user name and user email, but my contributions are counted and shown on my Calendar. Anyone has some idea regarding this?

Double-check all your account settings:

If your commits aren't showing up in the contribution section of your GitHub profile, there could be several reasons for this. Here are some common troubleshooting steps you can take:

• Check the Email Address
• Verify Commit Authorship
• Check Repository Ownership
• Verify Pushes
• Check Repository Visibility
• Review Commit History
• Cache and Cookies
• Refresh GitHub Page

If after trying these steps your contributions still don't appear, you might want to reach out to GitHub support for further assistance. They can help diagnose the issue and provide personalized guidance based on your account and repository settings.

@Chamindu77 Thank you!
After double-checking the email address, my contribution is shown correctly now.
I agree that the first step is to check whether your user name and email address are correctly configured if your project is a public one.
Simply run the command git log and you will find the user name and email address in the git history.

For those who have the same issue as me and would like to rewrite the user information in previous git commits you could refer to https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2919878/git-rewrite-previous-commit-usernames-and-emails.
