I've migrated a private GitHub repository to use the new Dependabot (into GitHub) and now the Dependabot badge shows as it is inactive, on my README.md, but it's working fine.
I'm looking for a way to fix the badge to reflect the real status.
There is an open issue tracking this (currently in the Github team's backlog).

my github commits
If you look at the image, an old commit is currently in use for the github pages, why and what do I have to do to make the latest commit pass checks?
I have been told to try vigilant mode but I don't think thats what the issue is about as all the commits are verified.
I simply took down the github pages for the repo and republished and it checked the latest commit.
My Github contributions were showing correctly but
Somebody deleted the repository I was contributing
My contributions disappeared, which is ok
The repo was restored but my contributions never appeared again in my Github profile
I have all the settings I need for my contributions to appear and if I commit now they will show up, but how can I restore that contributions and make them appear in my profile?
To fix this issue contact Github support, open a ticket explaining what happened and they will restore your contributions.
I've deployed an app on Netlify through continuous deployment by linking a single Github repo. I had previously been making commits to the project locally, and my contributions were being tracked for this repo. However, now that I've linked the repo to Netlify, it seems no commits or contributions I make are picked up by Github. The commits can still be seen in the Github repo and commits are updated, but the contributions no longer are tracked despite them working previously.
For some context I've checked the Github help page on contributions:
https://help.github.com/en/github/setting-up-and-managing-your-github-profile/why-are-my-contributions-not-showing-up-on-my-profile
And cannot see what rule I've violated; I'm working on this on my own, it's a standalone repo, etc etc. considering they were being tracked before for the same repo, I'm confused as to what has changed now that Netlify has been integrated.
Any help/guidance appreciated
So it had nothing to do with Netlify, but my work Mac did not have me globally installed as the commit author with my email. After that, all previous authors were wrong as being my local computer email.
To get around this I followed this tutorial to replace all previous commits with the correct author: How do I change the author and committer name/email for multiple commits?
I've connected a Github repository with a Azure DevOps project to get the links between work items and commits/pull requests. But if the commit message contains any of the words "Fix/Fixes/Fixed" it will automatically transition the work item to a Done state which I don't want it to do. Is there a way to disable this behavior?

It`s not possible now. It exists only for Azure Git Repositories: Enable commit mention work item resolution.
There is an official answer: How to disable closing of work items on commit for GitHub?
We use GitHub for our project and are happy with it.
I often browse the project website to check what my friends are doing on the project, and the dashboard lists the last commits on the master branch of all repositories I contribute to.
This is well and nice, but most of the work happens on other branches then get merged.
Any idea how to pin what happens to these branches on the dashboard?
Beside changing the default branch of a GitHub repo (which isn't what you need), you could also set an RSS feed: see "Setting up an Github Commit RSS feed"
