Another option is Read the Docs, which is how we host the Write the Docs docs: http://docs.readthedocs.org/en/latest/ -- It's basically the above workflow that GitHub describes, but with Sphinx (http://sphinx-doc.org/) -- which is a mature and powerful documentation system.
I forgot to mention that, but it is already on my list of things to investigate. I came across readthedocs.com in the last few months (probably on HN) and sent a passionate email requesting access to the private beta. I haven't been selected yet, but I am anxiously waiting to try it out.
How would you say that readthedocs.com differs from the tool mentioned in a sibling comment (Readme: https://readme.io/)?
