The git sidepanel does not refresh on file changes/autorefresh interval too long

See original GitHub issue

ref: https://github.com/jupyterlab/jupyterlab-git/pull/448#issuecomment-554193273

Currently, when you make changes to a file on disk in a git repo, it takes a significant lag period before said changes show up in the git sidepanel UI. One quick fix would be to shorten the autorefresh interval. Even better though would be to listen for some flavor of “file changed” signal and trigger a refresh then.

Not sure exactly which signal to listen to, but I assume there’s something relevant somewhere in one of:

@jupyterlab/docmanager
@jupyterlab/docregistry
@jupyterlab/filebrowser

And yeah, I saw that the file browser is configurable; however, that is not exposed to the end user. I think if orgs are concerned about performance, by adding a refresh interval to settings, we can allow them to adjust to taste. We can just provide a sensible default (maybe 4-5s) and tell them they can adjust accordingly.
