So I did a couple of stupid things this morning. I wanted to change my user name, glittergirlhanna is too social for GitHub, so I renamed the account to hannagoodbar. Then I renamed my repo, and the local repo (here is where the mistake is), then pulled from GitHub to make sure everything worked. It worked… and I could no longer do rake new_post[]. Oops, I forgot to sync the Octopress source to GitHub, even though it told me in plain sight to do so!

Don’t forget to commit the source for your blog.

git add .
git commit -m 'your message'
git push origin source

Luckily, I only made two blog posts before I decided to do all this. Lesson learned, again. Before you do something for which you don’t know the outcome, make a backup! Make a backup.

Until next time…
