Gist tags and oembed handling is specific to WordPress.com, and doesn’t come bundled with standard WordPress from wordpress.org
You will need to acquire a plugin to register gists as an oembed provider, or add embed tags.
There are plenty of plugins that do this available, I use this one. If you’d like to write your own, you’ll want to use the wp_embed_register_handler
function as a starting point.
