 {{{
 In r18068-dotorg:

 Profiles: Include changesets that users are mentioned in on Core/Meta SVN
 in their profile feed.

 See https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/5978
 }}}

 A good example of this is https://profiles.wordpress.org/costdev/ for
 Core, and https://profiles.wordpress.org/jonoaldersonwp/ for Meta/Core.

 For committers, here's some direct links to the edit screen (You need
 posting permission for the make site)
  - https://make.wordpress.org/core/wp-admin/admin.php?page=props-edit-core
  - https://make.wordpress.org/meta/wp-admin/admin.php?page=props-edit-meta

 There's not exactly many instructions, but it's impossible to break -
 worst case you have to hit reparse on the commit or re-edit all the props.

 There's nothing preventing it being expanded to BuddyPress & bbPress SVNs,
 other than not knowing where to show the UI's, and adding a BP/BB version
 extraction function :)

 It's built around SVN, but there's no reason it couldn't import a Git
 repo, other than non-sequential commit numbers, and if hosted by GitHub
 (for example) the usernames not matching dotorg usernames. Although, that
 being said, if a linked W.org linked GitHub is mentioned in a SVN commit
 at present, that's picked up, so we could probably make it work.
