I'd expect bzr to rotate it, as it does with client logs. Martin, is that expectation correct? > (*) Also, does not make sense to me that the normal log is a dot file. > I would have found it three days ago if it had been a normal name. I agree, it doesn't make much sense for a server to save a log in a dot-file. Perhaps submit a bug report about that.
