Hi,
How can I tell nginx to create a new log file (access log) every x
minutes?

Use your system’s logrotate to do that.
How do I sent a USR1? What is that for, it signals to nginx to start a
new
file?

I don’t believe so, no. Check
You’d have to move the log out from under nginx before sending it, I
think.
I’d personally use logrotate with a specially SIGUSR1-related config
stanza if I had to do this, and wouldn’t try and write the logic
myself.

I was hoping it was just a simple config setting! hehe
