As I started tinkering with codesign (the commandline utility from Apple to sign code with and test if code has been signed), I ran into the issue that when trying to redirect the output to a file, nothing did get redirected.

For example:

codesign -dv --verbose=4 MyApp.app > output.txt

resulted in a zero byte file.
Then I recalled the good old days, and remembered the stdout vs stderr misery and found that the following actually does work:

codesign -dv --verbose=4 MyApp.app &> output.txt

(effectively outputting both stdout en stderr to the output file)
