If you have a version of APR with this problem (I think most/all 0.9.x 
versions do) then it cannot handle an individual file that is > 2GB. 
However, since fsfs stores each revision as a single file, you would get 
this problem if a single commit resulted in a repository file > 2GB.

There is no problem with the total size of the repository being greater 
than 2GB.
