Description
Currently, there is one log file, production.log. This file grows continuously over time.
It would be nice to have a log manager that includes the following:- Automatically cycle log files on set time interval
- Daily
- Monthly
- quarterly
- never
- Automatically cycle log files at specified file size (ex 10MB or never)
- Delete log files older than so many days, weeks, months (or never)
Optionally, it might be nice to separate the log into groups, such as error, debug, and running.

This is out the scope of the Redmine core to handle log rotation but the ruby's standard logger that Rails uses accepts some options that you can use.
Have a look at the comments in config/environments/production.log. And here are a few pointers for more information:
- The Rails logger: Howhttp://guides.rubyonrails.org/debugging_rails_applications.html#the-logger
- Ruby's standard logger: http://www.ruby-doc.org/stdlib-1.9.3/libdoc/logger/rdoc/Logger.html#method-c-new

BTW, I personnaly use logrotate for that.
