• last_edit_time_format uses Ruby's DateTime formatter; see examples and more information at this link.
• gh_edit_repository is the URL of the project's GitHub repository
• gh_edit_branch is the branch that the docs site is served from; defaults to master
• gh_edit_view_mode is "tree" by default, which brings the user to the github page; switch to "edit" to bring the user directly into editing mode
