Using Engineer sites with github pages doesn't work well #66

Related to #51, simply setting up a clone of a repo with github pages, then building an engineer site with a config targeting the location of the clone causes some bad behavior. Namely, since Engineer attempts to put the target directory in exactly the same state as the cache site directory, it deletes the .git folder and its contents in the target repo. Ummmm, not good...
