You might be looking for something similar to : http://confluence.jetbrains.com/display/TCD7/Command+Line option .

in 'Build Steps' - you can choose 'Command Line' as Runner Type and in Run select 'Custom script' & write the shell command line to execute in 'Custom script' text area.

echo "Hello there!!" | tee someFile.log

And add to artifact path if you want to...

On Windows I had to do `echo "Hello there!!" > "tee someFile.log"` – nawfal Jul 04 '17 at 18:11

Yes of course - you can use a Powershell build step for this and pipe the console output to a file, here a practical example:

git rev-parse HEAD > GitRevision.txt

Note that this question/answer is really unrelated to TeamCity - this is just Powershell (you can achieve the same using command line)
