Error stating I have exceeded 65535 characters when I am only entering 29150 characters.

[leewilson86]

I often get the following error flagged against my Pull Request description when I know I am not exceeding the character count.

HttpError: Invalid request.

Only 65535 characters are allowed; 525915 were supplied.

In the current instance of this error, my character count is only: 29150

I have noticed this happens when I want to paste a Terraform plan into the description. This is usually a simple copy/paste from the macOS Terminal app.
