Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.

Choosing a publishing source
Before you configure a publishing source, make sure the branch you want to use as your publishing source already exists in your repository.
-
On GitHub, navigate to your site's repository.
-
Under your repository name, click Settings.
-
Under "GitHub Pages", use the None or Branch drop-down menu and select a publishing source.
-
Optionally, use the drop-down menu to select a folder for your publishing source.
-
Click Save.
Troubleshooting publishing problems with your GitHub Pages site
Note: If your site has not published automatically, make sure someone with admin permissions and a verified email address has pushed to the publishing source.
If you choose the docs folder on any branch as your publishing source, then later remove the /docs folder from that branch in your repository, your site won't build and you'll get a page build error message for a missing /docs folder. For more information, see "Troubleshooting Jekyll build errors for GitHub Pages sites."
