Setting Up an Existing Octopress Blog
06 Apr 2013Once you have your Octopress blog in place, you might wonder how you start contributing from another computer; either yours or a friends.
You need to setup Octopress for each computer but not from scratch. Clone your repo, switch to the source branch, then manually set up a _deploy
folder and bind it to the master branch.
