Can you do a git status? I accidentally did something similar the other day while copying commands from the quickstart guide. "> bin/kafka-console-producer.sh --broker-list localhost:9092 --topic test"
"> filename" will truncate filename to zero length and all subsequent commands will not return anything.

Check if you find some thing in server.log. Make sure your zookeeper and broker instance is up and running.
