This was a bug in the SVG generation. The TL;DR is that the height and width
were not being set for the root SVG. It should now be fixed.

Note that github caches images locally. I wrote a script to purge the cache for
all the badges that have landed already and I've added a cache control rules to
the vhost serving these files now. Once this lands, I'll try purging the cache
from GH again and hopefully it'll stop caching these images, which are not meant
to be cached forever.

If you need to purge the cache yourself, you can do it by issuing this command:

$ curl -x PURGE $THE_GITHUB_IMAGE_URL

Hope this helps,
Flavio
