# savelog - save a log file
# Copyright (C) 1987, 1988 Ronald S. Karr and Landon Curt Noll
# Copyright (C) 1992 Ronald S. Karr
# Slight modifications by Ian A. Murdock <imurdock@gnu.ai.mit.edu>:
# * uses `gzip' rather than `compress'
# * doesn't use $savedir; keeps saved log files in the same directory
# * reports successful rotation of log files
# * for the sake of consistency, files are rotated even if they are
# empty
# More modifications by Guy Maor <maor@debian.org>:
# * cleanup.
# * -p (preserve) option
#
# usage: savelog [-m mode] [-u user] [-g group] [-t] [-p] [-c cycle]
# [-j] [-C] [-d] [-l] [-r rolldir] [-n] [-q] file...
# -m mode - chmod log files to mode
# -u user - chown log files to user
# -g group - chgrp log files to group
# -c cycle - save cycle versions of the logfile (default: 7)
# -r rolldir- use rolldir instead of . to roll files
# -C - force cleanup of cycled logfiles
# -d - use standard date for rolling
# -D - override date format for -d
# -t - touch file
# -l - don't compress any log files (default: compress)
# -p - preserve mode/user/group of original file
# -j - use bzip2 instead of gzip
# -J - use xz instead of gzip
# -1 .. -9 - compression strength or memory usage (default: 9, except for xz)
# -x script - invoke script with rotated log file in $FILE
# -n - do not rotate empty files
# -q - be quiet
# file - log file names
#
# The savelog command saves and optionally compresses old copies of files.
# Older version of 'file' are named:
#
# 'file'.<number><compress_suffix>
#
# where <number> is the version number, 0 being the newest. By default,
# version numbers > 0 are compressed (unless -l prevents it). The
# version number 0 is never compressed on the off chance that a process
# still has 'file' opened for I/O.
#
# if the '-d' option is specified, <number> will be YYMMDDhhmmss
#
# If the 'file' does not exist and -t was given, it will be created.
#
# For files that do exist and have lengths greater than zero, the following
# actions are performed.
#
# 1) Version numered files are cycled. That is version 6 is moved to
# version 7, version is moved to becomes version 6, ... and finally
# version 0 is moved to version 1. Both compressed names and
# uncompressed names are cycled, regardless of -t. Missing version
# files are ignored.
#
# 2) The new file.1 is compressed and is changed subject to
# the -m, -u and -g flags. This step is skipped if the -t flag
# was given.
#
# 3) The main file is moved to file.0.
#
# 4) If the -m, -u, -g, -t, or -p flags are given, then the file is
# touched into existence subject to the given flags. The -p flag
# will preserve the original owner, group, and permissions.
#
# 5) The new file.0 is changed subject to the -m, -u and -g flags.
#
# Note: If no -m, -u, -g, -t, or -p is given, then the primary log file is
# not created.
#
# Note: Since the version numbers start with 0, version number <cycle>
# is never formed. The <cycle> count must be at least 2.
#
# Bugs: If a process is still writing to the file.0 and savelog
# moved it to file.1 and compresses it, data could be lost.
# Smail does not have this problem in general because it
# restats files often.
