Add Binary to GitHub Gist

A neat little trick to keep binaries around which might disappear otherwise - or simply to add pictures to your Gists

How to add a binary file to a GitHub Gist
First make sure git is installed on the local machine and then:
1.Create a new Gist​
2.Clone to your local machine (replace <hash> with your Gist's hash):
git clone [email protected]:<hash>.git gist
3.Add and commit the binary:
cd gist
git add VCForPython27.msi
git commit -m "Added VCForPython27.msi binary"
4.Push changes to GitHub:
git push origin

Credit goes to Mark for this great trick!
