Is the ability to use custom domains free now? In the past I thought you had to be under one of the paid github plans.

Oddly enough, I don't see any mention of this in the github article explaining how to set up a custom domain: https://help.github.com/articles/setting-up-a-custom-domain-...

In the root of your repo on the gh-pages branch:

echo example.com > CNAME

Then point it (if apex) at 207.97.227.245.

I've been using a custom domain (for free) for over a year now. Really cool for simple static sites.
