I like the warning; IMHO it will fix the occasional "I have accidentally 
submitted an .iso in my repository, how can I fix that?" appearing on this 
list.  It's not about 9.5Mb or 12Mb files, but really about 50, 500 or 6000Mb.
I for sure do not want to manage such files in the repo, and I am glad if I am 
warned when one is about to slip through.

Have a nice day,
