for the filename ending .log.1, rename it to .log.2
for the filename ending .log.2, rename it to .log.3 and so on



For example, given the following directory:



access.log 
error.log
error.log.1
error.log.2


the script should leave the directory in the following state:



  access.log    (empty)
access.log.1
error.log (empty)
error.log.1
error.log.2
error.log.3
