Problems with gh-pages

Hi there,

using --gh-pages doesn't create the rendered version of the page in /gh-pages

Here is what I did:

➜  plumps-gh git:(master)  styx deploy --init-gh-pages
Cloning into './gh-pages'...
done.
Switched to a new branch 'gh-pages'
rm '.gitignore'
rm 'conf.nix'
rm 'readme.md'
rm 'site.nix'
[gh-pages (root-commit) 59ff43b] initialized gh-pages branch

You can now update the 'gh-pages' branch by running 'styx deploy --gh-pages'.
➜  plumps-gh git:(master) ✗  styx deploy --gh-pages

rm '.styx'

Added a commit that should help with this.

Didn't work for me.

➜  plumps-gh git:(master) ✗  styx --help

It seems that the build produced no files, there might be a problem in site.nix.
Is /nix/store/hbbs0gcaaq41v34dz3al2f3w9nahzsvc-styx-site/ empty?

[ericsagnes]

Should be fixed in 0.7.0.
Please reopen the issue if the problem happens again.
