[Feature Request] Counting private repos for the language card

[icandac]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

As we know of, there is count_private option for the stat cards. I can not be the first one who think of adding that as a method for the language cards, am I?

Describe the solution you'd like

I didn't check the repo but the method can be added easily to the language card class, if the structure consists classes.

Describe alternatives you've considered

the classes and their structures can be different for sure but there should be a way to put count_pricate as far as it is not an issue getting the pricate contributions by an api call.

+1 cause I want this as well. I believe this would require giving the app access to your gh account, I'm not familiar with the codebase but its a project I'd want to take on this summer if possible.

Edit: seems to already be a feature if hosted locally, #2515

@Kyu is correct, this feature is available when you deploy your own Vercel instance or the unreleased GitHub action. We cannot implement it on the public instance since we don't have permissions to retrieve stats about your public repositories. The reason that we have include_private for the stats card is that users can decide to share their private contributions to their profile using the GitHub interface (see https://docs.github.com/en/account-and-profile/setting-up-and-managing-your-github-profile/managing-contribution-settings-on-your-profile/showing-your-private-contributions-and-achievements-on-your-profile). There however is a feature request to remove that option since it contains the contributions and not the commits (see #2517).
