I should add that you do not have to use Jekyll, you can use any html, and 
any tool that generates html, EG: Sphinx [2]  <http://sphinx-doc.org/>See 
this site for an example <http://mikofski.github.io/JGit4MATLAB/> [1]

The way ghpages is setup in your repository, you will want to use the subtree 
merge strategy <http://git-scm.com/book/en/Git-Tools-Subtree-Merging>. [3] See 
this SO post on how easy this is.<http://stackoverflow.com/a/19302892/1020470>
