copytruncate
Truncate the original log file to zero size in place after cre‐
ating a copy, instead of moving the old log file and optionally
creating a new one. It can be used when some program cannot be
told to close its logfile and thus might continue writing
(appending) to the previous log file forever. Note that there
is a very small time slice between copying the file and truncat‐
ing it, so some logging data might be lost. When this option is
used, the create option will have no effect, as the old log file
stays in place.
