Hi there,

I really want to disable the feature that checks for updates on github for packages that have a .git folder in it.

I understand the feature is cool.

But I would like to disable it because I don't use it and It always ask for my private key for each package that have a .git folder.
Also this makes unnecessary connections to github with my username that I don't want to do.

I don't know if I'm describing the problem correctly.

1 - I install a package in a normal way, via package control "install package"
2 - If I need to hack some package I fork the package on github, download the source via github and then put the contents into the package folder ..../Sublime Text/Packages/PackageName/
This will create ..../Sublime Text/Packages/PackageName/.git/ and this seems to raise package control to connect to github when I check for updates.
3 - Then, for each package with a .git folder in it, "Package Control" makes a connection to github and I receive a modal popup "Open please your private key"

I know I can disable updates, but I want to receive normal updates. I just don't want to check repository state via Revision_control
