I searched the documentation but found no way to accomplish this. However, the source code seems to depend on {{maxHistory}} flag set to 0 which means unbounded history. [see|https://github.com/qos-ch/logback/blob/3ce9f04d6e5f40155839cfe9ada90d9454305...] and [see|https://github.com/qos-ch/logback/blob/3ce9f04d6e5f40155839cfe9ada90d9454305...]. but hence I cannot find it documented anywhere, I am afraid to use so to be changed in the future without any declarations! So my question is, Is it documented somewhere I don't know about? if not, can you document it somewhere?    ============================== This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.8.0#808000-sha1:e2c7e59)
