To embed GitHub Gists in pages you can use the {% gist c08ee0f2726fd0e3909d %} provided by the jekyll-gist plugin that’s enabled by default on GitHub Pages, but this theme also provides a gist.html include that makes the gists wider than the main content of the post.

To embed a wide gist:

{% include gist.html sha="c08ee0f2726fd0e3909d" %}

To render just a single file from a gist rather than the entire gist pass the file= argument:

{% include gist.html sha="49e543c05736ddbb7873240fa2a89767" file="README.markdown" %}
