+### Maximum diff patch size
+
+This is the content size each diff file (patch) is allowed to reach before
+it's collapsed, without the possibility of being expanded. A link redirecting
+to the blob view will be presented for the patches that surpass this limit.
+
+Patches surpassing 10% of this content size will be automatically collapsed,
+but expandable (a link to expand the diff will be presented).
