Find the SHA1 hash of the large file.  You can probably do this doing
"fossil ui" and looking under the "Files" menu.

Shun just that one SHA1.  Do *not* try to shun any other checkins or other
files.  Just the one file you want to get rid of.

After shunning, run rebuild to permanently delete the file.
