Hi,

I recommend not messing with the Capistrano logger, Instead use what unix
gives you and use pipes:

$ cap deploy | my_logger.rb

Where your logger reads STDIN and STDOUT and both records, and pipes it back
to the appropriate stream.

For an alternative, the Engineyard cap recipies [
http://github.com/engineyard/eycap ]  have a logger [
http://github.com/engineyard/eycap/blob/master/lib/eycap/lib/ey_logger.rb ]
– this might be a useful reference if you do need to edit the code, but I
recommend not doing.
