Minimum free disk space not working

[brunetton]

Description of the issue

I haven't a lot of free space on my mobile phone, and I'm using Syncthing-Fork to synchronize my text notes (<10Mb total) with my computer.

When I set free minimum disk space in Syncthing web UI to 3Mb, stop synch and restart synch I can see an error in Syncthing-Fork saying that I don't have sufficient space left:

Reproduction Steps

• configure a shared folder
• don't have much free space on your phone
• change default configuration for storage from "minimum 1% free space" to "minimum 10Mb free space"
• stop sharing and restart sharing
• => the sync is not starting and an error message explain that there's no space left (< 1%)
• double check in syncthing UI that the 10Mb minimum space rule has been saved

Expected behavior: sync should start, as more than 10Mb free space is available

Version Information

• App Version: 1.23.2.2
• Syncthing Version: v1.23.2
• Android Version: Android 10 (EMUI 12.0.0)
• Device manufacturer: Huawei
• Device model: MAR-LX1A

Device platform info

Thanks !

Don't know if this is linked with #277

The database resides on a another partition /data/data/... than your synced files. The internal data partition might be full.

Do you mean that the internal data partition should have more than 1% free space for sync to work ?

This seems crazy (and makes me crazy) having to have more than 1Gb free space to sync 10Mb text notes :(
