<https://github.com/rg3/youtube-dl/issues/14864>
To do disk free space checking will need a different technique than
git-annex normally uses, because youtube-dl does not provide an easy way to
query for size. Could use --dump-json, but that would require downloading
the web page yet again, so too expensive.. and, the json seems to have
"filesize: null" for youtube videos. What does work is the --max-filesize
option, which makes youtube-dl abort if it's too big.
