Hi. Would bash devs even consider replacing the current behaviour of ">" (redirection) to do the equivalent of the following(under the hood) ?
When: `command > $somewhere` then actually do(under the hood): : > $somewhere command >> $somewhere ie. create&truncate file, then open it in append mode and redirect to it, instead of what it currently does(aka not append). So, it would be functionally the same except that it would help mitigate some cases where output would get overwritten. For context: https://stackoverflow.com/q/56167779/11509478 If not, could the devs(or anyone) please suggest a place in the source code where to look for attempting to implement/change this for myself? Thanks all!
