Remove the theme entry from your _config.yml file (so that you tell Jekyll you're not using a preexisting theme) and commit all the files and layouts that belong to the theme you want to use into the Git repository along with everything else you have (posts, etc.).

Found the way. To use another theme than the ones specified, do not commit the source jekyll files to the master branch.

Instead, run jekyll build --destination dist and then commit the contents of the dist directory to the master branch.
