How it works

hexo-basedir-deployer-git works by generating the site in .basedir_git and force pushing to the repo(es) in config. If .basedir_git does not exist, a repo will initialized (git init). Otherwise the curent repo (with its commit history) will be used.

Users can clone the deployed repo to .basedir_git to keep the commit history.

git clone <gh-pages repo> .basedir_git

Reset

Remove .basedir_git folder.

$ rm -rf .basedir_git
