# Deploying a dist folder 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](http://yeoman.io).

1. Remove the `dist` directory from the project’s `.gitignore` file.
2. Run the script below called `setup.sh` to set up the subtree.
3. Run the script below called `deploy.sh` to deploy the subtree to GitHub Pages.

Boom.
