If you link github directly to your Google+ profile it's a little easier.

Getting author annotations for your Github projects in Google search
See, there is my face next to my Github project :)
How did I do it:
My Github projects has www.nonblocking.io listed as my website. That website has this bit of markup:
So it says that both my G+ profile and my Github profile are both "me".
Now my G+ profile links to www.nonblocking.io as well (and actually to my Github profile). Those 3 things together establish a pretty safe link between my Google profile and my Github profile and Google starts to surface the association in search. Neat
PS: Only because I work for Google, absolutely positive does not imply that I know what I'm doing, so your experience may vary.

And this applies to anything you author. For example, if you're an open source developer you should definitely link your github profile. Video and photo sites? Same thing.
Most sites are supporting XFN these days so the more links to your Google+ profile, the more often your face will show up next to your content.

Help your friends find you! - another Google+ tip...
Add and verify all of your email addresses to your Google Account here:
https://plus.google.com/settings/general
This makes it easier for your friends to find you now and in the future! I've found that I don't know the gmail address of many people, but I do know their corp email or another alias. Plus if you lose your password you can send a recovery email to your alternate address.
Be aware that you can only associate one email per Google account and you can't add another gmail address to another account. If you want to associate email addresses to your primary account you can visit this page:
https://www.google.com/accounts/EditUserInfo
1) If the email is listed as a secondary address, remove it on the old account and add to the primary.
2) If the email is primary you can change the email address of the unused account and replace it with something like username+unused@gmail.com. Then add the renamed email to the primary account.
Cheers.
