# Gitea per repository size limit setup
To use Gitea's experimental built-in per repository size limit support, Administrator must update the `app.ini` file:
```ini
;; Enable applying a global size limit defined by REPO_SIZE_LIMIT. Each repository can have a value that overrides the global limit
;; "false" means no limit will be enforced, even if specified on a repository
ENABLE_SIZE_LIMIT = true
;; Specify a global repository size limit in bytes to apply for each repository. 0 - No limit
;; If repository has it's own limit set in UI it will override the global setting
;; Standard units of measurements for size can be used like B, KB, KiB, ... , EB, EiB, ...
REPO_SIZE_LIMIT = 500 MB
```
This setting is persistent.
The size limitation is triggered when repository `disk size` + `new commit size` > `defined repository size limit`
If size limitation is triggered the feature would prevent commits that increase repository size on disk
of gitea server and allow those that decrease it
# Gitea per repository size limit setup in UI
1. For Gitea admin it is possible during runtime to enable/disable limit size feature, change the global size limit on the fly.
**This setting is not persistent across restarts**
`Admin panel/Site settings` -> `Repository management`
Persistance can be achieved if the limit is maintained by editing `app.ini` file
2. The individually set per repository limit in `Settings` of the
repository would take precedence over global limit when the size limit
feature is enabled. Only admin can modify those limits
**Note**: Size checking for large repositories is time consuming operation so time of push under size limit might increase up to a minute depending on your server hardware
