How to add footnotes to GitHub-flavoured Markdown?

Expanding a little bit on the previous answer, you can make the footnote links clickable here as well. First define the footnote at the bottom like this

<a name="myfootnote1">1</a>: Footnote content goes here

Then reference it at some other place in the document like this

<sup>[1](#myfootnote1)</sup>
