gitpitch/docs/_snippets/yaml-public-policy.md

By default, each slide deck applies custom settings defined in a dedicated PITCHME.yaml file that is co-located in the same directory as the PITCHME.md markdown for that deck.

For slide decks within public repositories if no dedicated PITCHME.yaml settings file is found, decks will render having automatically inherited any settings defined in the PITCHME.yaml file located in the root directory of that same repository.

!> This public repo fallback policy allows you to maintain a single PITCHME.yaml in the root directory and have those settings shared by multiple decks within a single branch.
