Currently there isn't a GUI for changing the time refresh intervals. If you'd like to change them you can through terminal by using these commands:
defaults write com.keithsmiley.github-status KSGithubStatusRefreshInterval -int NUM
defaults write com.keithsmiley.github-status KSGithubStatusDownRefreshInterval -int NUMAs you may expect the first is the normal refresh time while the second is the refresh time when the last status reported Github as being down.
Replace NUM with the seconds you want it to be refreshed by. 60
for 1 minute etc. The refresh interval default is 1800 (30 minutes). The
down refresh interval default is 300 (5 minutes).
