Write git terminal outputs to file
The simplest solution, which basically writes the output into the given file instead of the terminal:
Let’s dive deeper now.
The previous command, would overwrite the given file if it has been already created and written.
In order to append the new data you can use an extra > char:
- ( > ): skips terminal output and writes to the file (overwrite)
- ( >> ): same as previous one, but appending
- ( 2> ): only writes the errors in file and prints the normal logs in terminal (overwrite)
- ( 2>> ): same as previous one, but appending
- ( &> ): only writes all the logs and errors to the file (overwrite)
- ( &>> ): same as previous one, but appending
- ( | tee ): prints everything on terminal, as well as writing logs to file (overwrite)
- ( tee -a ): same as previous one, but appending
- ( |& tee ): prints everything on terminal, as well as writing everything to file (overwrite)
- ( |& tee -a ): same as previous one, but appending
