How about something along the lines
cd project_dir do
@stdout, @stdterr = capture_outputs("#{migrate} #{args}")
end
...
def capture_outputs(cmd)
stderr_log = "/tmp" + "/#{$0}-{$$}.log"
out = `cmd 2> #{stderr_log}`
err = File.read(stderr_log) if File.exist? stderr_log
[out, err]
end
Totally untested, but hopefully you get the idea?
