Guides: I'm missing my Gravatar icon on my commits

We generate your Gravatar from the email address that is part of the commit. Try running git log in your repo to see the email address that specified for each commit. Make sure you have a Gravatar for each email address that you use to commit with.

To fix your email when committing in git:

[~]$ git config --global user.email me@example.com

You may also need to check your Gravatar account to make sure your Gravatar has a G rating.

If you wish to set this on a repo-level instead of a global one:

[~/path/to/repo]$ git config user.email me@example.com

This change will only affect future commits. Your past commits will retain the old, incorrect address.

If you add an email address to your account that matches existing commits, it may take some time for caches to clear before the commit will link to your account and show your gravatar.
