Fail to import from Github about cloudpebble HOT 3 CLOSED

Update: I couldn't load this as zip file as well. Unicode font file is too big.
I could load it after replacing the file with another dummy_font_file with same name, then loading original file.
This may be related issue or different.

This isn't the real error; the import is invalid, and that error message is being obscured by another error occurring while logging the issue. This is a bug.

"a file is too big" is a valid reason for it to reject an import, though it may also mean the limits should be reevaluated.

In case of importing zip I get error that it's too big. In case of importing same project from github I get different error. It is very likely to be same reason as zip import. I guess you can check if it is size error. If so, we can divide it into two:

1. Show "project too big" on import when it is the reason for fail.
2. consider accepting bigger projects.

Regarding the size, it is within reason to keep the limit as it is, because there are tools to cut unnecessary font from big TTF files before loading them to the project. It depend on your server considerations.
