Contribution is not shown in profile after repository history migration

Body

Hello!

We've just open sourced our project (https://github.com/YTsaurus/YTsaurus) and I was moving the history of our commits to github by creating new commits with old date and proper contributors. The problem is that for the most of our contributors commits are not shown in their profiles. For example, I have commits during the whole last year but my contribution page is empty, however commits are attached to my github profile (e.g. ytsaurus/ytsaurus@8af6b22).

Interestingly, there is one of our contributors (https://github.com/dimaskovas) who has all of his commits shown in profile. What is the difference between him and other people and how to fix it?

Thanks in advance!

Did all the contributors add the author email in their commits to their GitHub accounts? If not (or if there's an error in the mail address), the commits won't be recognized as theirs.

Yes, they did. Commits in repository point to real Github profiles.
