[PATCH] git-gui: Show a round number of bytes of large untracked text files

[Johannes Sixt]

From: Johannes Sixt <johannes.sixt@telecom.at>

If an untracked text file is selected, then its contents are displayed
instead of a diff. If the file is large, then the following hint is
inserted at the top:

  * Untracked file is 14774881 bytes.
  * Showing only first 131072 bytes.

Why exactly 131072 bytes? With this patch it is 100000 bytes.

Signed-off-by: Johannes Sixt <johannes.sixt@telecom.at>

 Another bikeshed to paint. ;)

 Every now and then I stumble over this number, and I ask myself,
 why are those h4x3rs so binary?
