How to change the header font size and remove the footer in Jekyll minima theme?

Question

I would like to use Jekyll's minima theme but would like to:

1. Increase the size of the header (it will occupy a somewhat bigger fraction of the screen). I would also like to remove the line that separates the header from the rest.

2. Remove the footer

How can I do that?

Use a file assets/main.scss with the following content:

@import "{{ site.theme }}";
.site-title {font-size: 50px;}
.site-header {border: none;}
.site-footer {display: none;}
