Step by step to host your HTML application to Github

1. Create a new empty github repository:
The local project has the following folder structure:
lib( folder )
   |- angular.js
angular_controller.html

2. use command git checkout –orphan gh-pages to create a new branch named “gh-pages”.
Add all files in local project to this branch and push them to github again via command:
git push origin gh-pages

Click the hyperlink of html, and you get the following url in browser:
The url for this Angular application hosted in github is:
http://<your user name in github>.github.com/<repository_name>/angular_controller.html
As a result in my example, the url is: http://i042416.github.io/jerry_test/angular_controller.html
Test in browser and it works now:
