Default settings have been provided in `_config.yml`. The important ones to set are `provider: "staticman"`, `branch`, and `path`. View the [full list of configurations](https://github.com/eduardoboucas/staticman#jekyll-configuration).
**Note:** Staticman is currently only compatible with GitHub based repositories. [Support for GitLab Pages](https://github.com/eduardoboucas/staticman/issues/22) is planned but not available yet.
