How to include folder name in Github Repository URL

Question

courseraasignment2 is the name of my repository and module2_solution is the name of the folder I uploaded. The URL generated by website is:

..github.io/courseraassignment2/

whereas I want the URL to be

...github.io/courseraassignment2/module2_solution/ .

How can I achieve it?

Answer 1

...github.io/courseraassignment2/tree/gh-pages/module2_solution/index.html will you achieve, if you add a folder (module2_solution) and create inside at least one file (index.html) and push this. tree/gh-pages define, that you show the gh-pages branch's current version of the index.html file (just an example...)

As far as I know, you cannot remove tree/master from the url as it could also have other branches (eg tree/develop ). Is unfortunately also the case, if you only have one branch (master), tree/branch is needed to find the branch of the respective file (because the files can have different content per branch)
