docker.Client.logs(tail=0) returns all logs instead of no logs

This is a confusing behavior. It also makes it harder to follow a container's logs (with stream=True) without getting at least some old log data. A work-around is required, specifying tail=1 and then discarding the first line of output.

I believe this is the behaviour of the API (http://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/api/docker_remote_api_v1.21/#get-container-logs), so we shouldn't be modifying that on the client. You might need to open this issue on the docker project.

The CLI behaves properly, so this is most likely a docker-py bug.

Ah, good call

Thank you!
