How to turn off Sublime 2 updates notification?

Question

I've installed Sublime 2 on Ubuntu using a PPA repository and update it via this native Ubuntu mechanism, so it just annoys me to see "A new version is available..." every time I start Sublime. I've found nothing searching for "update" in Sublime configuration file. Where can I disable the notification?

Answer 1

There is update_check field in Sublime version 2.0.1 build 2217.

Just go to Preferences -> Settings-User and add there: "update_check": false

Sublime then stops checking for the new version.

Note that at least for some versions this check is deliberately broken during the evaluation period.
