There is an inconsistency here. In the subject you say ": >" but in
the body just ">".

A couple more comments below...

In patch [5/11] you dropped whitespace following the redirection
operator, however, this patch introduces several new cases of unwanted
whitespace.

Checking "master", I see that there are 209 instances of `: >` in
tests, but 1023 instances of `>`, which suggests that we should stick
with plain `>` rather than `: >` in this patch.
