How do I specify the address of home page md file?

[thewasif]

I am deploying through GitHub Pages. In main branch, I have docs folder. It's deploying the website through doc folder. But I have to copy the README.md from root to /docs.
Can I specify the home page of website in yml file?
home-page: ../README.md something like this?
because currently it is taking index.md of the folder (that has _config.yml) as home page. How can I change this?

Hi, unfortunately if you set your Pages source to /docs, then your entire site must be in that directory. You can write in to support@github.com to suggest this feature, but in general you need to have the whole site in one place.
