+# "core.bigFileThreshold
+#
+# Files larger than this size are stored deflated, without
+# attempting delta compression. Storing large files without
+# delta compression avoids excessive memory usage, at the
+# slight expense of increased disk usage.
+#
+# Default is 512 MiB on all platforms.
+# This should be reasonable for most projects as source code and other
+# text files can still be delta compressed,
+# but larger binary media files won't be."
+# -- Git documentation
+#
+# If streamFileTreshold < bigFileTreshold you _may_ spend alot of time waiting
+# for push and/or fetch to complete. It may even look hung.
+#
+# Until the issue is resolved gracefully, a workaround is to configure
+# bigFileThreshold < streamFileTreshold AND then repack the repository.
+#
+# e.g. from the repository folder with Gitblit NOT running:
+# git config core.bigFileTreshold 40m
+# git gc --aggressive
+#
# SINCE 1.0.0
# RESTART REQUIRED
git.streamFileThreshold = 50m
