Description Cosimo Cecchi 2014-04-22 22:35:22 UTC 
Some systems might want to only keep the systemd journal in volatile memory, to minimize writes to flash storage.
OSTree currently creates /var/log/journal at deploy, which automatically turns on persistent storage in the default journald configuration. This policy should be left to the integrator instead, and gnome-ostree-integration in fact already creates /var/log/journal through tmpfiles.

Yeah, this was a transient hack that we should just stop doing nowadays.
