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).

	azure config mode asm
	export vm_name=<vmname>
	export vm_state="$1"
	azure vm $vm_state $vm_name
	azure vm show $vm_name --json \| jq -s .[].InstanceStatus
	azure config mode arm

	#works with Azure in Powershell v 1.3.2

	$Key = "[storageaccountkey]"
	$Context = New-AzureStorageContext -StorageAccountKey $Key -StorageAccountName $StorageAccountName

	$pass = "[password]"
	$creds = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PsCredential($userVal, (ConvertTo-SecureString $pass -AsPlainText -Force))

	//stick this in public void ConfigureAuth(IAppBuilder app)
	app.UseCookieAuthentication(new CookieAuthenticationOptions
	{

	CookieManager = new SystemWebCookieManager()
	});

	//And create this class elsewhere:
	public class SystemWebCookieManager : ICookieManager
	{

	Get-AzureRole -ServiceName $CloudServiceName

	$username = "<username>"

	#Prior to doing this, ensure that user is logged in
	# 'az login' works
	#Then, if you have multiple subscriptions attached to account, select the appropriate one using:
	# 'az account set --subscription <name or id>'
	#command below:
	az group create --name COMP6905A2Storage #name I used

	#ensure logged in to azure
	#ensure default subscription is desired one
	az storage account create --name comp69052017a2test \ #test storage account
	--resource-group COMP6905A2Storage \#test resource group
