4199	Check for FAT file size limit when copying (large) files	iromeister		"When I copy a file > 4GB to a FAT partition, e.g. on a (slow) flash drive, mc happily starts copying the file until it hits the 4 GB boundary of the FAT file system. Only then it tells me that I can't copy that file because it's too large.

It would be nice to have mc checking that file size limit '''before''' starting to copy.

In theory this applies to other file size limits as well, but in practice I only experienced this as a problem with FAT. Maybe it would be wise to implement it a bit more general though."	enhancement	closed	minor		mc-core	master	duplicate					no branch
