I dunno. This?

But it's bittersweet considering which article earned me this badge, but maybe that's what makes it special.

Description

Note: Generated by Gemma4

Some contributors were not receiving their "Contributor Club" badges (e.g., 16x-commit-club) despite having the required number of merged pull requests. This was primarily due to GitHub attribution issues where commits were not associated with the user's current GitHub ID (often caused by changes in verified emails).

This PR improves the badge awarding logic by complementing the total commit count with an explicit count of merged pull requests using the GitHub Search API.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Contributor badges now reflect activity from both commits and merged pull requests over the past 14 days, using whichever activity count is higher.
    • Contributors can qualify for badges through merged pull requests even when their commits aren’t attributed to them on GitHub.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Badge awards are more resilient when GitHub search requests encounter temporary errors or rate limits.
