Re: Download hangs if stderr is redirected to stdout

[Ander Juaristi]

Hi,

Though Bash bites to me from time to time (and hence I might be wrong), 
the last statement doesn't look like valid syntax.

What you're doing is redirecting stdout to a file called '1'. Then the 
argument '2' is taken as another URL to download. So wget gets that file 
from GitHub successfully, and then tries to get http://2, which hangs.

The right syntax to redirect stderr to stdout seems to be the first one.
