Permanent redirect from Github gh-pages
Question
I want to create a homepage and, for now, I think Github's pages features will serve my needs. However, I might want to switch to a more full-blown CMS/blog engine later on.
Is it possible to serve a permanent redirect (HTTP 301) from Github pages in case I decide to move my homepage someplace else while preserving all the old URIs?

Best I can deduce is that Github has not yet added this. See Tekkub response from April 2010 re: adding it to the feature request list. Another message from another user in January suggests a META tag as a workaround (probably not a good solution).

Mass redirect layout technique
Individual page redirects are covered at: https://stackoverflow.com/a/36846720/895245 Actual 301s seem impossible.
If you want to mass redirect:
http://you.github.io/some/path
to:
http://new_domain.com/some/path
do as follows.
Before you move away
_layouts/default.html: the default layout_configuses the default layout:defaults: - scope: path: '' values: layout: 'default'
After you move away
create
_layouts/redirect.htmlwith an HTML redirect derived from Redirect from an HTML page along:{% assign redir_to = site.new_domain | append: page.url %} <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>Redirecting...</title> <link rel="canonical" href="{{ redir_to }}"/> <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url={{ redir_to }}" /> </head> <body> <h1>Redirecting...</h1> <a href="{{ redir_to }}">Click here if you are not redirected.<a> <script>location='{{ redir_to }}'</script> </body> </html>_configcontains:defaults: - scope: path: '' values: layout: 'redirect' new_domain: 'http://new-domain.com/some/pathreplace every non-default layout with a symlink to the
redirectlayout. This is the only ugly part of this technique. I don't see a beautiful non-plugin solution.

For the security of their users, GitHub Pages does not support customer server configuration files such as .htaccess or .conf. However, using the Jekyll Redirect From plugin, you can automatically redirect visitors to the updated URL.

Yes, it is. Shortly, set up CNAME redirection by setting a custom domain on your GitHub Pages settings .
This is usually the case when you want your GitHub Pages to be served through a custom domain (let's say the user tries to access https://kamarada.github.io/ , then the browser redirects to https://linuxkamarada.com/ , but the pages are indeed on GitHub).
But it also works in the case when you previously had your website served by GitHub Pages and moved to another server, eg GitLab Pages (I imagine that could work for eg WordPress as well).
See this answer : the user tries to access https://kamarada.github.io/ , then the browser redirects to https://linuxkamarada.com/ , but the pages are actually on GitLab.
