git-blog intends to be blogging, simplified. You'll write your posts in your
favorite text editor, with your favorite markup. Then save the post's file,

+`git add` the post, and then `git push origin master`. git-blog, running on
your server, will catch the push and parse the post to your static HTML blog.
Fast, no dynamic code being run on every load, free post versioning (git
revisions), free sections (git branches), freedom of mind.
git-blog will never be featureful, but it will also never be bloated. I doubt
I will ever do anything more than parsing the posts to static HTML on every

Preparing git-blog
------------------
After this is complete, move to that folder (something along the lines of `cd ~/Documents/Blog`), and then add any remote repositories to which you wish to push your blog. Most likely, this will include the server hosting your blog to the web. The simplest setup to push to this server is an SSH connection - if you have SSH access to your server/host, you can run this to set up git-blog for pushing:
- git-remote add blog [email protected]:/path/to/server/blog/folder
+ git remote add blog [email protected]:/path/to/server/blog/folder
This will prepare a remote named 'blog' to which you can push your changes. In addition, if you use [GitHub](http://github.com "GitHub - free Git repository hosting"), you can also push your blog there. Create a new repository on GitHub, and then use this to automatically set up that remote for you:

Now just push your beautiful new post(s) to the server:

I suggest you run `rake deploy` before comitting any new posts / changes to post - if you have a syntax error in one of your posts, the parser may not like it, and it's preferable to catch this before you commit the changes and push them to your blog.
-git-blog will automatically re-parse all of your posts, and create an index file for your blog, after you git-push to the server. They're going to end up as simple static HTML, so there's nearly no load on your server when a page is visited - this makes a git-blog inherently faster and cheaper to run than any dynamic blog (such as Wordpress or Expression Engine) could ever be.
