I've described before how I use fossil to manage student assignment
submissions in courses I teach.

A perennial problem is that the students commit binary executables, .o
files, and the like. Theses change every build so I have dozens of versions
of potentially large files in the student repos.  Disk is cheap, but when
you have hundreds of students committing multiple versions of
multi-megabyte, it adds up.  If the students were very disciplined, they
would assiduously edit ignore-glob to prevent this. But if there is one
thing that students (en-mass) are not, it's disciplined!

So I need something on the server side that will block large and/or binary
files from being saved (like an implicit shun).

Any ideas?

Thanks  ../Dave
