title: Unable to set favicon using Jekyll and github pages
body: <p>I am trying to set a <code>favicon.ico</code> for my github page, but it doesn't work. When I serve it locally I see the standard "empty" favicon and when I push it I see the facebook icon. Why is it so? I have the right <code>favicon.ico</code> in the root directory of my project and I added the line </p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/x-icon" href="/favicon.ico"&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>to the relevant <code>default.html</code>. You can see the sources here: <a href="https://github.com/drorata/drorata.github.io" rel="noreferrer">https://github.com/drorata/drorata.github.io</a></p>
