Joseph,

I am thinking you intent is different (i.e. commits to github are _good_
things). :-)

Checking the github API, it does not look like they expose the IP of the
commiter for the commit: https://developer.github.com/v3/git/commits/
I'm pretty sure the store it but perhaps for privacy reasons do not wish to
expose it?
