Success! You were right, Josh, I got some of the steps reversed and sometimes forgot which branch I was in. Fixed that with a new bash PS1 that prints out branches when I'm in a git repo. The long story short is that the main repo is 6 files/dirs lighter than the gh-pages, much much cleaner.

I recommend Sourcetree for looking at these things more visually. (Google it or go to atlassian.com). It’s free and works with Git and Mercurial. I use it with Mercurial. I think you can do this with a ‘master’ branch, an ‘extras’ branch, and a ‘release’ branch. What you are doing is close to

Owen, Looks like you have things working just how you want them to. You can keep working in your master branch and whenever you want to update gh-pages, git checkout gh-pages git merge master done. So long as you never merge gh-pages into master you are golden. —joshua On Dec 4, 2013, at

I thought so too. But here's an experiment. master dir has this (Attic is in .gitignore and just has stuff removed): *Home|~/src/cs/test3[649]: ls* *Attic README.md junk.txt* while gh-pages has: *Home|~/src/cs/test3[653]: ls* *Attic images javascripts stylesheets* *README.md index.html

One last thing: I use gitx http://gitx.frim.nl/ a simple little OSX app that has a nice graphical display of your history. Helps to see where you are, when you have multiple branches in the picture. —joshua On Dec 5, 2013, at 6:51 PM, Owen Densmore o...@backspaces.net wrote: Wow, sounds

Just looked at it, I like it! BTW: http://oli.jp/2011/github-pages-workflow/ is a post on gh-pages and various ways to manage it. It in turn was one of several responses from this: http://lea.verou.me/ which discussed the mirroring approach. What I REALLY want is a bit further down the

This should be easy but I haven't figured out a solution yet. I have a repository (repo), agentscript. It has not only the core code and plugins but docs, models, and js/min.js files which require hosting .. i.e. something that can serve these html/js files. GHPages, the github project hosting
