There's no need to install Jekyll on your machine any more than you would
install the Travis infrastructure on your machine. If you push to your
fork's gh-pages branch, the content will get rendered *on your fork*:

http://arokem.github.io/nipy.github.com/

This means that you might need to make PRs from your gh-pages branch, or
update your gh-pages branch from your PR branch, especially if you made
some complicated formatting change that.
