- +===========================+===========+==============+===========+=====================================================+
- | ``remotePollinterval`` | integer | milliseconds | ``30000`` | Poll time for the remote repository |
- +---------------------------+-----------+--------------+-----------+-----------------------------------------------------+
- | ``localPollinterval`` | integer | milliseconds | ``10000`` | Poll time for local repository |
- +---------------------------+-----------+--------------+-----------+-----------------------------------------------------+

- * ``remotePollinterval`` is for systems which have notify for local file system changes (Linux only currently)
- this is the frequency it polls for remote changes. The following two values are ignored.
- * ``localPollinterval`` is for systems which poll the local file system (currently Win and Mac) this is the
- frequency they poll locally. The ``remotePollInterval`` is ignored on these systems.
- * ``PollTimerExceedFactor`` sets the exceed factor is the factor after which a remote poll is done. That means the effective
- frequency for remote poll is ``localPollInterval * pollTimerExceedFactor``.
