Intellij idea run GIT command too frequency
Answered
Hi, I am using latest community edition and found my computer getting very slow from time to time, upon checking, IDEA will run "git-remote-https.exe" very frequency and once it running the computer will become very slow
Not sure why it get trigger but can we at least make it run less frequency? What is the config about that?

IntelliJ check is there are commits on the remote. This is controlled by the Mark branches that have incoming/outgoing commits in Settings | Version Control | Git.
As you can see the call by default happens one in 10 minutes - does not look really frequently. Moreover, the feature just requests the hash of the latest commit on the remote without transferring commits, so it is completely not clear why it slows down the computer.
Thanks, what i can see is somehow "git-remote-https.exe" will start a java process and that is the slow part, not sure if it because of some wrong setup of my computer?
The other thing is if I opened n projects in GIT, then it is it 10/n min
Ok it is quit annonying, everything I open a new project this option will enable back, not sure if I can disable this option altogather?
To change the default state for new projects use File - Other Settings - Settings for New Projects...
In already created projects the checkbox has to be disabled manually.
