+
+  # ==> Navigation configuration
+  # Lists the formats that should be treated as navigational. Formats like
+  # :html, should redirect to the sign in page when the user does not have
+  # access, but formats like :xml or :json, should return 401.
+  #
+  # If you have any extra navigational formats, like :iphone or :mobile, you
+  # should add them to the navigational formats lists.

+  # up on your models and hooks.
+  # config.omniauth :github, 'APP_ID', 'APP_SECRET', :scope => 'user,public_repo'

+  # change the failure app, you can configure them inside the config.warden block.
+  #
+  # config.warden do |manager|
+  #   manager.intercept_401 = false
+  #   manager.default_strategies(:scope => :user).unshift :some_external_strategy
+  # end
+
+  # ==> Mountable engine configurations
+  # When using Devise inside an engine, let's call it `MyEngine`, and this engine
+  # is mountable, there are some extra configurations to be taken into account.
+  # The following options are available, assuming the engine is mounted as:
+  #
+  #     mount MyEngine, at: "/my_engine"
+  #
+  # The router that invoked `devise_for`, in the example above, would be:
+  # config.router_name = :my_engine
+  #
+  # When using omniauth, Devise cannot automatically set Omniauth path,
+  # so you need to do it manually. For the users scope, it would be:
+  # config.omniauth_path_prefix = "/my_engine/users/auth"
