+scan_max_file_size
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Maximum file size allowed for a file to be scanned when scanning a codebase.
+
+The value unit is bytes and is defined as an integer, see the following
+example of setting this at 5 MB::
+
+    scan_max_file_size=5242880
+
+Default is ``None``, in which case all files will be scanned.
+
+.. note::
+    This is the same as the scancodeio setting ``SCANCODEIO_SCAN_MAX_FILE_SIZE``
+    set using the .env file, and the project setting ``scan_max_file_size`` takes
+    precedence over the scancodeio setting ``SCANCODEIO_SCAN_MAX_FILE_SIZE``.
