Increase index_files_sanity_limit

#1

Hi, I’m seeing this in the console:

number of files to index (656672) exceeds index_files_sanity_limit (524288), bailing out

Does anyone know if it’s possible to increase index_files_sanity_limit from 524288? I am looking at Chromium and there are more files than that. I’m not bothered that it will take a long time to index.

You can just add it directly to your normal user Preferences and change the value and then restart Sublime. For example:

	"index_files_sanity_limit": 1,

Produces:

number of files to index (23) exceeds index_files_sanity_limit (1), bailing out

The setting isn’t documented as something you can tweak, but observably it works as one would expect.
