So I have my project ready, however it takes 26mb of space instead of allowed max.25mb. So I just copied the files into a different Playground, and it takes only 5mb of space this way. Is it generally ok? I will mention it when applying, but won't Apple consider this as project that wasn't built by me because I just copy-pasted it? The initial playground also had a git file with commits...

I would suspect that this is the reason that your original playground is larger than the copied one. You should probably remove the git history to save space.

My concern is that Apple will look at the creation date of the new .swiftpm file and will not believe I have completed this project in a single day.

I wouldn’t be concerned about this, you should be ok to just submit the copied version as long as it works as intended.

The project must be in a single .swiftpm in a zip file. If that's not the case, it will be refused.

Maybe you have some large images for which you could reduce resolution and save a few MB ?
