>From Bash man page (Redirecting output):

       Note  that  the order of redirections is significant.  For
       example, the command

              ls > dirlist 2>&1

       directs both standard output and  standard  error  to  the
       file dirlist, while the command

              ls 2>&1 > dirlist

       directs  only the standard output to file dirlist, because
       the standard  error  was  duplicated  as  standard  output
       before the standard output was redirected to dirlist.
