[Samba] log.samba missing rotation

Samba 4.12.1 installed from source following the wiki. 

I noticed 
/usr/local/samba/var/log.samba
is not being rotated at all, it starts since the day I installed and it's still growing (500M so far).

Is this something which must be handled manually with a logrotate entry? What signalling does samba require after the file has been rotated?

I didn't find anything on the wiki, is it worth documenting?

Thanks
