personal website

http://yvanvolochine.com

This site uses Jekyll.

Run it locally:

bundle install
make serve

Go to http://127.0.0.1:4000/

Local development files are built into _site folder.

Deploy

We use git worktree and gh-pages branch inside dist folder, so that the main folder is on master branch and dist folder is on gh-pages branch.

To deploy a new version of the site:

$ (master) ~ git commit -am "..."
$ (master) ~ make deploy

This is what happens behind the hood:

• cleanup dist folder
• trigger a new production build
• commit changes to gh-pages branch
• (force) push gh-pages branch to github
• go back to base folder and master branch

Ooops

If you ever delete the dist folder accidently, do this:

$ (master) ~ git worktree prune
$ (master) ~ git branch -D gh-pages
$ (master) ~ mkdir dist
$ (master) ~ git checkout --orphan gh-pages
$ (master) ~ git reset
$ (master) ~ git commit --allow-empty -m "Initial commit"
$ (master) ~ git checkout --force master
$ (master) ~ git worktree add dist gh-pages
