OneDrive Personal Filesize Article Update Suggestion

Hey guys,

I just wanted to point out that the ODP filesize reported the rclone OneDrive Article are incorrect.

OneDrive Personal: 100GB not 35GB per file

Source:

I can personally confirm this.

Do you fancy sending a fix for this?

The file which needs fixing is

github.com

rclone/rclone/blob/master/docs/content/onedrive.md

---
title: "Microsoft OneDrive"
description: "Rclone docs for Microsoft OneDrive"
date: "2015-10-14"
---

<i class="fab fa-windows"></i> Microsoft OneDrive
-----------------------------------------

Paths are specified as `remote:path`

Paths may be as deep as required, eg `remote:directory/subdirectory`.

The initial setup for OneDrive involves getting a token from
Microsoft which you need to do in your browser.  `rclone config` walks
you through it.

Here is an example of how to make a remote called `remote`.  First run:

     rclone config

And you can follow the instructions to do a web browser based fix here:

You're most welcome.

"There is a followup idea on the PR for a futher update." - what do you mean with that?

Also: I really love the work you're doing here, if there is a way I could somehow contribute a little bit let me know. I can't really code that well, but I am fluent in German and English, so I could do some work on the docs if you like.

According to this, Onedrive for Business will also have the updated 100GB limit by end of June: https://support.office.com/en-gb/article/invalid-file-names-and-file-types-in-onedrive-and-sharepoint-64883a5d-228e-48f5-b3d2-eb39e07630fa?ui=en-US&rs=en-GB&ad=GB

Perhaps we can specify 100GB for that too, with a note saying that it will be applicable only from July?
