## Using `site.github`

Common repository information, such as the project name and description, is available to Jekyll sites using `jekyll-github-metadata` including GitHub Pages sites.

#### Usage

Repository metadata is exposed to your Jekyll site's configuration in the `site.github` namespace.

Simply, reference any of the below keys as you would any other site configuration value present in your `_config.yml` file, prefacing the key with `site.github`.

For example, to list a project's name, you might write something like `The project is called {{ site.github.project_title }}` or to list an organization's open source repositories, you might use the following:

<!-- {% raw %} -->
```liquid
{% for repository in site.github.public_repositories %}
  * [{{ repository.name }}]({{ repository.html_url }})
{% endfor %}
```
<!-- {% endraw %} -->
