Little idea to deploy a folder on the gh-pages branch automatically.

Deploy on github pages.md

Deploy on Github Pages from a folder

1. Create the gh-pages branch and initialize it with nothing except a .gitkeep file.

2. Add gh-pages/ folder in .gitignore to keep git history clean.

3. From the master branch, clone the gh-pages branch into the gh-pages folder:

$ git clone <repo> --branch gh-pages gh-pages

4. Create a deploy script in package.json.

For instance for a little project of mine using the angular CLI:

"deploy": "rm -f gh-pages/* && ng build --base-href 'https://USERNAME.github.io/PROJECT/' && cp dist/* gh-pages/ && cd gh-pages && git add --all && git commit -m \"Release at $(date)\" && git push"

That's all.
