For jekyll to generate the web-pages to be visible through a web-browser, your blog needs to live on the gh-pages
branch of your repository.
Create a gh-pages branch: To do this, enter the settings of your repo, launch the automatic page generator (under the “Github pages” heading), and click through to generate the default setting.
Pull this branch to your local copy of the repo. To do this you will need to issue the following on the terminal command line:
git pull upstream
git checkout gh-pages
git pull upstream gh-pages
at which point your directory should contain the auto-generated default content from Github's automatic page generator. We'll soon get rid of that.
Bootstrap your content from this repo: Delete the auto-generated content in this branch and copy over the content from this repository.
Edit the following:
about.md
: Describe the project
_config.yml
: Set the configuration variables for your own blog.
_posts
: Use the first post in this repo as a template for creating your own posts.
Commit everything, push it and make your first pull request - you are off!
Note: When you make pull requests, don't forget that you will want to make pull requests against the gh-pages
branch of your team repo, not the master
branch. Github allows you to select the base repo, and the base branch from a dropdown menu that appears when you ask to make a pull request.
Use branches and pull requests to add more posts and more content to the blog.
