Improve message when the file filtering in the source browser fails if the repository's file tree is too large to fetch

      The behavior here is the same as BCLOUD-20133 which was closed as "won't fix" due to low priority.

      The error message then was updated from:

       

      "There was an error filtering files. Please try again later."

      To

      "Unable to filter all files

      This repository is too large to display all the files. The filtered list is only displaying contents from the current directory."

      The term "large files" might give the impression of the reference to the size. We would like to ask for a clearer message, which could have a reference not only to size but also to the repositories which contain a high number of files regardless of the repo size.

      Eg.:
      This repository contains a large number of files to display. The filtered list is only displaying contents from the current directory."

      Also, the "current directory" is not clear if it includes the child/subdirectories or the ultimate directory. A clearer message on this part would be helpful as well.
