Research direction

The issue names no source files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the existing rollover behavior in streamroller and reviewing the linked Log4j startup policy; done should mean an application restart can trigger rollover only when the existing log file is non-empty.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

enhancement

Is it possible to trigger a rollover on every application restart? Similar to Log4j's OnStartupTriggeringPolicy
