Subject: local.conf.sample: Enable disk space monitoring by default
Date: Wed, 28 Nov 2012 07:37:25 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1354088245.21863.133.camel@ted> (raw)

Running out of space is a serious issue and can corrupt the build. Since
we can prevent it at minimal overhead, we might as well enable it by default.
