check_for_updates & check_for_updates_interval_seconds

Wezterm checks regularly if there is a new stable version available on github, and shows a simple UI to let you know about the update (See show_update_window to control this UI).

By default it is checked once every 24 hours.

NOTE that it doesn't automatically download the release. No data are collected for the wezterm project as part of this.

Set check_for_updates to false to disable this completely or set check_for_updates_interval_seconds for an alternative update interval.

config.check_for_updates = true
config.check_for_updates_interval_seconds = 86400
