Rails - Jun 2008 - Keeping the size of log files.

Hi,

During development, I see the size of development.log / test.log is
increasing forever. Is it possible to set the limit of the size?

I see that I can run `rake log:clear` occasionally, but I just wanna
ignore the files where possible.

You could always just have rake log:clear run automatically every so 
often using a cronjob.  That way you can ignore them, and they won''t
get
too big.

For info on cronjobs:

http://www.railsenvy.com/2007/6/11/ruby-on-rails-rake-tutorial#do_stuff

The second link is actually mostly about rake tasks, but its got a great 
example of how to run a rake task with a cronjob.

Of course, there''s probably some better solution than mine, which
I''m
sure someone else will post :)
