If I render my .Rmd output as a github_document it saves as an .md file. I would like this .md file to automatically display its content in github the way that a README.md file does. This would highlight the actual output of my analysis, but I am unsure of how to make .md files autodisplay when they are not README files.
Any .md can be displayed on GITHUB. Not just README.md . Only the extension matters, and the markdown flavor should be GFM which github_document converts to.
Did you try already to see how it looks on github ?
Take this example:
The README.md is on full display by default.
The drinks_eda.md is not on display until the file is clicked.
Oh I see, you mean that Github gives a preview by default in a repo folder.
In that case, I think it works with filename indeed . It is a special file considered by Github
