I'm getting the following error on 0.3.0 when trying to publish to a new repo:

$ rake publish
mkdir -p ~/website/build
cd ~/website
cd -
cd ~/website/build
git init
Initialized empty Git repository in ~/website/build/.git/
git remote add origin git@github.com:coreyward/website.git
git fetch --depth 1 origin gh-pages
fatal: Couldn't find remote ref gh-pages
rake aborted!
Command failed with status (128): [git fetch --depth 1 origin gh-pages...]
~/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.3.0/gems/middleman-gh-pages-0.3.0/lib/middleman-gh-pages/tasks/gh-pages.rake:42:in `block (2 levels) in <top (required)>'

The issue appears to have been introduced by the changes to git fetch in 37908b0. Specifying 68702c2 in my Gemfile and deleting the build directory results in the gh-pages branch being created on the remote successfully.

Thanks for the report. I'm a bit swamped at the moment, but I'll dig in as soon as I can.

Try v0.3.1. You will probably have to first rm -rf build your build directory first, and then re-run bundle exec rake publish.

Sorry about the bug there. That was a kind of major issue for those who hadn't yet made a gh-pages branch. Thanks for pointing it out.
