bip splits privmsg logs into multiple files; no way to force it to use only one file per nick
0%
Description
For some reason, bip splits my privmsg logs into multiple files. It starts with nick.log, then creates nick.log.0, then creates nick.log.1, and so on. This is annoying, since I want to have only one log file per nick. And I haven't found any way to disable this behavior.
My guess is that bip is trying to be helpful by splitting logs into "conversations"... where each file represents one burst of activity, and a new file is started whenever there is a significant gap in activity. But I don't want it to. Could this feature be turned off, or perhaps a config option be added to disable it?

Hi Selene,
Afaik, bip has no such feature, but it looks like a logrotate pattern though.
Isn't your logrotate set up to act on bip log files ?
Also, what is your log_format configured to ?
Thank you!
