New Revision: 298522
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/298522

Log:
  The default value of MINFREE is defined to be 8% in
  ufs/ffs/fs.h and not 10%.  The newfs(8) and tunefs(8)
  man pages had this change already, but fs(5) did not.
  This change makes it consistent again.
  
  Bump Dd.
