+The [`--log-format` CLI option](@docroot@/command-ref/opt-common.md#opt-log-format) can now be set in [`nix.conf`](@docroot@/command-ref/conf-file.md#conf-log-format)!
+For example, you can now persistently enable the `multiline-with-logs` log format [added in Lix 2.91](@docroot@/release-notes/rl-2.91.md) by adding the following to your `nix.conf`:
+
+```conf
+log-format = multiline-with-logs
+```
+
+Or the equivalent in a NixOS configuration:
+```nix
+{
+  nix.settings.log-format = "multiline-with-logs";
+}
+```
