Disable or change log files

[Finesse]

When Karma runs with a launcher provided by karma-browserstack-launcher, 2 files appear in CWD:

• local.log
• browserstack.err It always contains only [object Object] and therefore useless

These files can be useful, but what if I don't want to clutter my project root directory and what if other tools write to the same files. Is there a way to disable creating the files or change their location or print to stdout instead? If no, then I request this feature.

The local.log file is generated by the browserstack-local dependency for establishing the local tunnel connection.

To disable the log, you'll need to modify node_modules/browserstack-local-nodejs/lib/Local.js

Comment Line: https://github.com/browserstack/browserstack-local-nodejs/blob/master/lib/Local.js#L39
and remove '--log-file', this.logfile, from the list of args on on https://github.com/browserstack/browserstack-local-nodejs/blob/master/lib/Local.js#L209

@shawnlobo96 Thanks. I can use patch-package to keep the change in my repository. But this is a dirty hack.
