This was a life saver, thanks so much!

Wanted to add a couple more steps for when you make updates to the site and need to refresh the gh-pages. May be obvious, but wanted to document it.

  1. $git checkout gh-pages
  2. $git merge master
  3. $ember build --environment production
  4. $git add --force dist
  5. $ commit.
    6 $git push (remote-repo-name) gh-pages
