Disable CheckSpace in default config #54

Open rkitover opened 4 days ago

rkitover commented 4 days ago

Disable CheckSpace in the default pacman.conf because on many MSYS2 installations the free space checking is excruciatingly slow.

The extra safety afforded by this feature is not justified by the very painful experience of many users, and the situation of not having sufficient free space for packages is very unlikely on modern hardware.

I understand that this should actually be fixed and I may help with that, but do you think this minor change to the default config would be justified in the meantime?
