For anybody who might want to tackle this, we currently refresh files/submodules every 10 seconds, and we re-fetch every 60 seconds. These could be made into configurable times. They're currently hardcoded in pkg/gui/gui.go where we call gui.goEvery. The place to create new config keys would be pkg/config/user_config.go and you'd also want to update the docs in docs/Config.md.

Worth noting that I tried getting file watching working again recently but couldn't find a way around the issue where you get an error due to too many files being watched.
