Closed, ResolvedPublic1 Estimated Story Points

Description

When trying to import a file with many revisions (Example) you get the error message:

The file you are currently trying to import exceeds the maximum file size limit.

This suggests that the file is to big (but it's not), whereas the total size of all revisions is to big.

Assuming this was a trivial task, so I gave it 1 story points. If that's not accurate, feel free to change it. @thiemowmde please try adding a story point estimation when adding additional tasks during the sprint.
