Let's say you have an iOS project, and you want to use some external library, like AFNetworking. How do you integrate it?

With submodules

Add the project to your repo:

git submodule add [email protected]:AFNetworking/AFNetworking.git Vendor/AFNetworking

or something to that effect.

Deploying a subfolder to GitHub Pages

Sometimes you want to have a subdirectory on the master branch be the root directory of a repository’s gh-pages branch. This is useful for things like sites developed with Yeoman, or if you have a Jekyll site contained in the master branch alongside the rest of your code.

For the sake of this example, let’s pretend the subfolder containing your site is named dist.

Step 1

Remove the dist directory from the project’s .gitignore file (it’s ignored by default by Yeoman).

ghanity ()
{
    local code="$1" url="$2";
    echo 'creating vanity GitHub URL... ';
    ghurl=$(curl -s -i http://git.io -F "url=$url" -F "code=$code"           | grep Location           | awk '{print $2}');
    echo $ghurl | pbcopy;
    echo "copied to clipboard: ${ghurl}"
}
