One thing your missing is to register your github key with your account.
This is allowed done via the got global setting. There is a description at
github about this. And this is the magic creating the links to you're
account.

Sorten for the very short and unreferenced answer but I'm already
"offline". A more detailed answer will come tomorrow morning. For more git
explanations,as achim already pointed out, feel always free to ping me on
Karaf irc, ops4j irc or one of the dozens other projects I'm in :-)

Kind regards, Andreas
