It remains an issue I have not been able to solve at this point: the case
where the new file contains more data than the tailed file before being moved.
In this case we ends up in the same situation: the new data in not ingested and
the processor is not yielded. This situation should not happen really often...
but still... if someone has an idea.
To reproduce: tail on /tmp/test.log
echo "test" >> /tmp/test.log
rm /tmp/test.log
echo "testtest" >> /tmp/test.log
In this case, both timestamp and size cannot be used to detect a
pseudo-rollover and we are stuck with the previous state and reader. Not sure
to see an easy solution.
