In order to provide the most robust, fast and accurate API for Gist we recently decided to make a few small changes to the*files* payload.

Sometimes we need to put some large data into a gist. However, we don't always need to see the full content of that large gist when we're fetching the metadata for gists via the API. This change imposes a sensible (according to our data) limit on the amount of raw file data that is returned in gist fetches via the API. If you're relying on reading the full content of individual files from a gist then you may need to update your flow to perform a followup request for the```raw_url``` resource in order to download the entire contents of the file. Which begs the question:*How do I know if the file's contents have been truncated?*
