Setting up Octopress on github pages without the command line #424

Since Octopress is a wrapper around Jekyll, is it possible to set up a octopress blog on github pages without touching the command line.

I'm not sure, not dug into Octopress too much. If you find out, I'd love to know :)

If you could write a tutorial on how to take a normal jekyll blog (which requires setting up a local development environment) and turn into a blog like jekyll-now (which does not require setting up a local development environment) that would be appreciated.

I have tried setting up octopress like jekyll-now at https://github.com/ishu3101/octopress but I get this error message when I deploy it on github pages. It works fine on my local machine though.

The page build failed with the following error:

The tag `include_array` on line 33 in `_layouts/post.html` is not a recognized Liquid tag.

I have tried another setup on https://github.com/ishu3101/octopus. But I get this error message when deployed to github pages

A file was included in `source/blog/archives/index.html` that is a symlink or does not exist in your `_includes` directory.
