No more files will be rendered at all if 5 megabytes have already been rendered.
*Note:* All collection limit parameters are currently sent and applied on Gitaly. That is, once the limit is surpassed,
Gitaly will only return the safe amount of data to be persisted on `merge_request_diff_files`.

File diff will be collapsed (but be expandable) if it is larger than 10 kilobytes.
