A little understanding of how *nix pipes work would help.

 

In short the '>>' pipe operator will append lines to the end of the specified file,

where-as the single greater than '>' will empty and overwrite the file.

How to get git producing output to a file?

Thanks for your help!

---

I just have found the solution:

Part 1

(Thanks to the answer of dessert)
git by design does never write to stdout but stderr. So I needed to redirect stderr, too, in order to get the output using

git clone XYZ &> git_clone.file

Part 2

Anyway this wasn't enough and I only received the "uninteresting" part of the output to the file but not the lines of the progress I really wanted.

Doing further reserach again in man git-clone I realized there exists an option

--progress
        progress status is reported on the standard error stream by 
        default when it is attached to a terminal, unless -q is 
        specified. This flag forces progress status even if the standard 
        error stream is not directed to a terminal.

Though I'ld think it actually was already attached to a terminal, this now seems to force git to write the lines of the progress part I'm most interested in finally to stderr as well so I can now get them using

git clone --progress XYZ &> git_clone.file
