Jekyll: Will GitHub Pages Auto-Rebuild my future Jekyll posts?

Created on 30 Nov 2014  ·  4Comments  ·  Source: jekyll/jekyll

I have a list of future daily posts. When I upload them to Github Pages, will it auto rebuild based on the dates of posts? In other words, when the current-date matches the date of the post, will it or can it auto-rebuild, or do I have to manually rebuild?

No, GitHub Pages only builds when you push a commit to your repository. If you need this, I'd suggest writing a daemon that pushes an empty commit every day to your repository, perhaps with some checking to make sure it's not an unneeded commit. Sadly, neither Jekyll nor GitHub Pages can do this for you.

Ok. Thank you!
