Equivalent of "script" command in Windows Shellscript?

Question

There is script command on GNU/Linux machine which allows to capture all command line activity into a file . This is really helpful tool especially when we learn something new and we want to save the commands and their output for future reference.

I am currently learning the Git on Windows PowerShell terminal and I wanted to capture all the commands and their output in a file for future reference.

Is there any way/command do achieve it on Windows PowerShell?

It exists standard CmdLets : Start-Transcript and Stop-Transcript.

You'll find more informations about these CmdLet in the associeted TechNet documentation.

Try with Start-Transcript and Stop-Transcript cmdlet.

You can also use Start-Transcript for ISE Editor module because these CmdLet don't work natively in ISE.
