Okay its not working for me...I must have missed something somewhere. I followed the directions but its not working. I commited and pushed the files to github the traditional way prior to finding these instructions, should I clean out the repo and try again?

Good stuff! Maybe worth to mention to add a CNAME under sources in order to use a custom domain.
