Couldn't find anything in the configs, but I downloaded the source and found 
this portion of code:

DiskFreeSpace diskfreespace;
  quint64 free = diskfreespace.getFreeSpace(targetPath) / 1024;
  if (free < 200*1024) {
    emit warning(i18n("Free space on \"%1\" is less than 200 MB. Problems with 
low space possible.", targetPath));
  }
