You may have noticed on the MythTV-Themes organization web site that the
A-Forest and Willi themes have a link to a project home page (
http://mythtv-themes.github.com/A-Forest/ and
http://mythtv-themes.github.com/Willi/ ). If you would like to create a
web site for your project on github, you may do so by going to your
github Project Page and clicking on "Admin", then "Automatic Page
Generator," create a page, apply a style, publish, and the web site
should show up within a few minutes.
This process creates a new branch in your repo called gh-pages, which
contains the website. Note that the page generator seems to rip out and
replace any existing gh-pages branch--which can mess up any existing
clones of your repo if you already had a gh-pages branch***--so I
recommend using it only once (first time won't cause any problems at
all). After that, simply edit the web site by switching to your
gh-pages branch:
git checkout gh-pages
and editing the HTML/CSS/JavaScript as desired. Or, you can manually
create a(n empty) gh-pages branch and add in the HTML, etc. you want
(with as many pages as you like). (Note that the Automatic Page
Generator isn't available for Organization web sites, which is why the
MythTV-Themes site is so bad--because I had to start from a blank page. :)
Thanks,
Mike
*** And if you end up re-using the page generator--to apply a different
style or something--and making a mess of existing repos with works in
progress, feel free to ask for help retrieving your un-pushed changes,
and we can help you salvage your changes.
