Roof Skin Edging

Where do builders bring the edge of their roof skin to? The attached image is not to scale and the bright blue corner is the edging.

I missed option 4. Bringing the roof Skin all the way to the edge?

I used option 4 - I used FRP for the roof material and it overlaps my 5mm Luan outside skin. It's been outside in hard, wind driven rain with no leaks to date.
