Hi, I'm writing to devel to see if others would find this useful or not,
before I dig into finding whether it is mock or rpkg to bother about this :D
I build packages with `fedpkg mockbuild -N`. i iterate with spec changes and
try to build the package until it passes. I use the -N (reuse the same mock
root) option to make it quicker.
Problem: The logs in results_.../ are appended with each build, hard to grep
or "eyegrep" for stuff I'm looking for.
Workaround: Remove (or move) the logs before each `fedpkg mockbuild -N` run.
Request for enhancement: Automatic logrotate for those logs:
I'd use `fedpkg mockbuild -N --logrotate` and the existing logs would be
renamed to have a number in their name before the next log files are created.
I wouldn't even need garbage collection for them, yet optionaly, it could
remove older logs (if you have more than N).
Sounds like a good idea to me, even for just the general 'fedpkg
mockbuild' case. I usually have a habit of 'rm -rf'ing the results
directory so I get a fresh set of logs each time.
