+# We set logfile_rotate=0 in squid.conf, which disables filename rotation
+# by squid itself (as we'll let logrotate handle the filename rotation), but
+# squid still closes and then reopens the logfile. The goal of this file is
+# to rotate the logfile (rename it from squid.log to squid.log.1) without
+# compressing it immediately, as squid will still be writing to the renamed
+# log file. Then the postrotate script will tell squid to close and then
+# reopen squid.log, effectively using the new logfile. The old logfile
+# (squid.log.1) will be compressed by logrotate's next invocation.
