[afriedman412]

In theory, you should be able to just copy your stuff to a new fork (looks like OP already did that).

1. fork Hyde/MinimalMistakes/etc
2. copy the contents of _posts/ into your new hyde repo and push
3. rename your NAME.github.io repo to NAME.github.io_old
4. rename your hyde repo to NAME.github.io
5. update the _config.yml in your new NAME.github.io repo and push

You'll lose any customization from the old one, but I think you can rename back if you change your mind.
