More things you can do without touching the command line
Publish new content
To publish new blog posts, go into the _posts folder and click the New File button. Name your post in this format: year-month-day-Title.md, save it, and you're set!
(You can also publish new content via command line by git cloning down your repo, and pushing up your new markdown files)
Set up your domain name
Follow the latest GitHub Pages Custom Domain Guide to set up your custom domain name. I've created the CNAME file already, so that you can easily edit it within the repository.
