Setting Git push limits
You can enforce a maximum size for Git objects in a repository.
To keep your repository size manageable and prevent performance issues, you can configure a file size limit for repositories on your instance.
By default, when you enforce repository upload limits, people cannot add or update files larger than 100 MB.
Note: Only files larger than 50 MB will be checked against the Git push limit. If you need to set a lower push limit, contact GitHub Enterprise Support or GitHub Premium Support for assistance.
