-This is the most **powerful technique in GitHub OSINT**. When a developer commits code, Git attaches an author name and an email address to that commit. GitHub hides these in the UI, but they remain embedded in the metadata.

 - **Go to**: `https://api.github.com/users/{target_username}/events/public`

 ### The Email Spoofing Method
 
-While the previous methods help you find an email _from_ a profile, this technique does the opposite: it identifies which GitHub account is linked to a specific email address.

 **How it works:**
-GitHub attributes commits based on the email address found in the Git metadata. If you push a commit using a specific email, GitHub will automatically link that commit to the account associated with that address as its **primary email**.

 **The Process:**
 
 1. **Initialize a local repo:** `git init investigation`
 2. **Configure the target email:** `git config user.email "target@example.com"` and `git config user.name "A Username"`
 3. **Create a dummy commit:** `echo "test" > probe.txt && git add . && git commit -m "Probe"`

-> **Note:** This method only works if the target email is set as the **Primary Email** on the user's account. It is a foolproof way to confirm if an email address you found elsewhere belongs to a specific GitHub user.
