Description
When entering a description for a repository a user may not know of the 255 character limit until after attempting to save their description. If a description exceeds 255 characters it is cleared when the user attempts to save. A character count should be added (or a visible warning of the limit) to the web interface to avoid having users retype descriptions if they forget or do not know of this limit. Potentially for long descriptions the warning could advise users to put information in the repo README instead.
