documentation for github deploy is wrong.

1. I fixed the path error, obviously it was for the node path module.
2. when publishing to git for some reason with the gh-pages branch it deploys an older commit.

tasks.set('publish', () => {
  const remote = {
    url: 'https://github.com/lifeiscontent/OpenPoGoUI.git',
    branch: 'gh-pages',
  };
  global.DEBUG = process.argv.includes('--debug') || false;
  const spawn = require('child_process').spawn;
  const opts = {
    cwd: path.resolve(__dirname, './public'),
    stdio: ['ignore', 'inherit', 'inherit'],
  };

  const git = (...args) => new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
    spawn('git', args, opts).on('close', code => {
      if (code === 0) {
        resolve();
      } else {
        reject(new Error(`git ${args.join(' ')} => ${code} (error)`));
      }
    });
  });

  return Promise.resolve()
    .then(() => run('clean'))
    .then(() => git('init', '--quiet'))
    .then(() => git('config', '--get', 'remote.origin.url')
      .then(() => git('remote', 'set-url', 'origin', remote.url))
      .catch(() => git('remote', 'add', 'origin', remote.url))
    )
    .then(() => git('ls-remote', '--exit-code', remote.url, 'master')
      .then(() => Promise.resolve()
        .then(() => git('fetch', 'origin'))
        .then(() => git('reset', `origin/${remote.branch}`, '--hard'))
        .then(() => git('clean', '--force'))
      )
      .catch(() => Promise.resolve())
    )
    .then(() => run('build'))
    .then(() => git('add', '.', '--all'))
    .then(() => git('commit', '--message', new Date().toUTCString())
      .catch(() => Promise.resolve()))
    .then(() => git('push', 'origin', `HEAD:${remote.branch}`, '--force', '--set-upstream'));
});

here’s the task code.

it seems that my public/index.ejs gets overwritten also.

@koistya here’s the updated task that I am using with the gh-pages npm module.

tasks.set('publish', () => {
  const ghPages = require('gh-pages');
  global.DEBUG = process.argv.includes('--debug') || false;
  const publish = (dir) => new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
    ghPages.publish(dir, {}, (err) => {
      if (err) {
        reject();
      } else {
        resolve();
      }
    });
  });

  return Promise.resolve()
    .then(() => run('clean'))
    .then(() => run('build'))
    .then(() => publish(path.join(__dirname, 'public')));
});

@josephdburdick what @frenzzy said ^^ Also, take a look at the “baseUrl” property in the “history” module docs.
