The 0.92.0 release notes document the behavior previously documented here.

Update to current behavior.

The 0.92.0 release notes

File redirections (o>, e>, o+e>, etc.) now apply to all external commands inside an expression.

I searched this repository for e>, o>, err>, out>, subexpression, piping. I was not able to identify release notes that document changed behavior after 0.92.0, and checked the 0.92.0 PR for linked followups or comments.

Resolves #2152
Resolves nushell/nushell#17604

> File redirections (`o>`, `e>`, `o+e>`, etc.) now apply to all ***external*** commands inside an expression.

I searched this repository for ` e> `, ` o> `, ` err> `, ` out> `, `subexpression`, `piping`. I was not able to identify release notes that document changed behavior after 0.92.0, and checked the [0.92.0 PR](nushell/nushell#11934) for linked followups or comments.
