Our Gerrit integration now offers the ability to cache version information for deployed instances.

The setting defaults to 8 hours (3 times a day). We consider this a sane default given that this information rarely changes. However, you can always adjust this setting under: "Setup > Agents > Other integrations > Gerrit."

Caching was introduced to reduce the load put on your deployed Gerrit instance as well as the infrastructure hosted by Gerrit. However, if you'd like to never cache, simply set the value to 0.
