The branch main has been updated by jrtc27: URL: https://cgit.FreeBSD.org/src/commit/?id=c0806883998778e97311a04d5c71718109bede4e commit c0806883998778e97311a04d5c71718109bede4e Author: Jessica Clarke <jrtc27@FreeBSD.org> AuthorDate: 2022-05-05 18:07:54 +0000 Commit: Jessica Clarke <jrtc27@FreeBSD.org> CommitDate: 2022-05-05 18:07:54 +0000 release: Use full window size for installer over serial lines When running over a serial line we end up defaulting to 80x24, which is rather cramped for many dialog boxes and occupies very little screen space for most modern terminals. Thus, run resizewin -z to set the terminal size if not already known before starting the installer, just as we do for csh and sh login shells already in their default dotfiles.
