Currently the docs reflect the latest release of JSHint. It would be great if the website could also expose information on prior releases because this recently-suggested approach (though value) is far from ideal:
You can browse to the version of which you are looking for documentation (v2.8.0) and read the comments in src/options.js
Because we are generating documentation from the source code, the ideal solution (as I see it) will require a fair amount of work. Pseudocode:
for each tag of the source code
look up a version-specific source code parsing function
apply that function to the code
expand the documentation template with the parsed variables
update documentation pages to list all available versions
