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... http://bencoman.github.io/ecstatic/install.html cheers -ben
