The mintty --log option is very useful but opens logfile without O_TRUNC

I would suggest to add O_APPEND.
I'll ponder that. The original intention was O_TRUNC.

Ideally it could be made user-selectable.

Agree, e.g. "--log +FILE" appends to FILE:

client.c:
  // Open log file if any
  if (*cfg.log) {
    if (cfg.log[0] == '+' && cfg.log[1])
      log_fd = open(cfg.log+1, O_WRONLY | O_CREAT | O_APPEND, 0600);
    else
      log_fd = open(cfg.log, O_WRONLY | O_CREAT | O_TRUNC, 0600);
    if (log_fd < 0)
      error("open log file");
  }

Thanks,
Christian
