I've successfully used "git subtree push", but I find it messes with
the history graph.  The architecture I'm trying is git top-level
folder containing:
  * generated html files;
  * _srcsite folder containing pillar files
  * _ecstatic folder containing all scripts and executables

that requires only...
$ git checkout gh-pages
# Modify pillar files in folder _srcsite
$ _ecstatic/generate
$ git add -A
$ git commit
$ git push

I temporarily broke the side menu, but I updated Guille's
documentation so you can see where I'm headed...
