I disagree. Having the website in a branch of the code repo makes it harder to maintain both at the same time. Either need to keep swapping branches (remembering to stash/unstash). Or have two separate local checkouts, in which case there is double the background data: might as well be separate repos. Also, I don't think it plays well with GitHub, AFAIK its search function does not scan all branches. Git branches are fine for versions of the same thing, but not for completely different sources (even if logically related). > Please generate consensus on your new repo, or delete it.
