About enterprise contributions

When you share contributions, your GitHub.com or GHE.com profile shows GitHub Enterprise Server contribution counts from the past 90 days. GitHub Enterprise Server sends updates hourly. Contribution counts from GitHub Enterprise Server are considered private contributions. The commit details will only show the contribution counts and that these contributions were made on GitHub Enterprise Server.

You can decide whether to show counts for private contributions on your profile. For more information, see Showing your private contributions on your profile.

For more information about how contributions are calculated, see Managing contribution settings on your profile.
