          Priority: medium
            Bug ID: 71546
          Assignee: systemd-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
           Summary: [journalctl] --follow --since will show the head
                    instead of the tail
        QA Contact: systemd-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Severity: minor
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux (All)
          Reporter: ram-z at chakra-project.org
          Hardware: All
            Status: NEW
           Version: unspecified
         Component: general
           Product: systemd

$ journalctl --follow --since=-1day
will:
1. show the FIRST 10 lines of `journalctl --since=-1day`
2. wait for new entries 
3. print all the rest when a new entry is added to the journal

It's not really an issue, but kind of unexpected. I only noticed because I have
an alias jc='journalctl --since=-1day'
