Question

I have a git repo which have following folders:

 _includes/
 _layouts/
 _plugins/
 _posts/
 _site/

_site folder is added in the .gitignore file.

Now can I have a git repo inside _site folder with different remote repo for push and pull? Will there be any conflict?

I have studied git submodules but I think it would be a overkill in my case, if the above stated method can work.

Answer 1

I think it should work. For main repo, _site folder does not exists. So what you have inside it doesn’t matter. When you cd into _site you will be on that independent repo.
