@softeng-701 can this be upgraded to a large please. Usernames are not stored in commits, only the user's full name and email are, so username has to be retrieved by the user's name through the github api. Also requires storage and handling of local pictures retrieved by github.
The nodegit commit class does not store username, it only stores full name and email.
The only way we could think to overcome this is to search github's API for the full name get the username from the first result, as even searching by email does not work (as not everyone has emails public, and not everyone only has one account with each email).
I am going to create an issue to show that it is blocking this, as i'm sure the same it is blocking other issues too that people can reference.

Currently, only the first letter of GitHub users' names appears on the nodes. It would be more useful to have their GitHub profile pictures so they can be more easily identified.
