When it comes to making logs of what's going on, I generally do...

           make 2>&1 | tee make.log

...as that puts the log on the screen and lets me watch what it's
doing, so I don't get bored watching an unchanging screen. Also, by
dropping the log in the current directory, I know what it relates to
if I forget to erase it and come back to it later.
