Github page using hexo, how to get my theme supported?

I want to host a simple blog on Github pages. Therefore I set up a repository and used Hexo as a compile and deployment tool.

After testing my site locally I run the following command:
hexo deploy --generate

Sadly I, just a few seconds later, get the following message from Github:

The page build failed with the following error:

The hacker theme is not currently supported on GitHub Pages. For more information, see https://help.github.com/articles/adding-a-jekyll-theme-to-your-github-pages-site.

For information on troubleshooting Jekyll see:

https://help.github.com/articles/troubleshooting-jekyll-builds

If you have any questions you can contact us by replying to this email.

How can I publish my site using the hacker theme? If this is not possible which themes are supported by Github? How do I use them with Hexo?

[..] I used the username.github.io repo and deployed directly to master and it works!

Bypassing Jekyll on GitHub Pages

It is now possible to completely bypass Jekyll processing on GitHub Pages by creating a file named .nojekyll in the root of your pages repo and pushing it to GitHub. This should only be necessary if your site uses files or directories that start with underscores since Jekyll considers these to be special resources and does not copy them to the final site.
