**Pro-tip:** Delete the `gh-pages` branch after cloning and start fresh by branching off `master`. There is a bunch of garbage in `gh-pages` used for the theme's demo site that I'm guessing you don't want on your site.

### _config.yml
|
||||
|
||||
Most of the variables found here are used in the .html files found in `_includes` if you need to add or remove anything. A good place to start would be to change the title, tagline, description, and url of your site. When working locally comment out `url` or else you will get a bunch of broken links because they are absolute and prefixed with `{{ "{{ site.url " }}}}`[^1] in the various `_includes` and `_layouts`. Just remember to uncomment `url` when building for deployment or pushing to **gh-pages**...

When working locally use `http://localhost:4000` or comment out `url` to avoid broken links prefixed with `{{ "{{ site.url " }}}}`[^1] in the various `_includes` and `_layouts`. Just remember to set `url` back to the live domain before deploying or pushing to GitHub Pages.
