Mirrors can now be declared using the `mirror` method which works similar to
`depends_on` and takes the same arguments as `url`.
The formula class now has a public `fetch` method that cycles through the
mirror list if the downloader for the primary URL throws a `DownloadError`.
Other brew commands, like brew-fetch, also benefit from mirror support by using
this method.
ClosesHomebrew/homebrew#7574.
`rack` is a commonly used alias for `formula.prefix.parent`---so common that it
gets defined and used quite a bit. This patch makes `rack` an official method
of the `Formula` class.
The compiler setting in the xcodeproj is overridden by the CC setting in the environment. This is a bit insane IMO since the xcodeproj itself has detailed decisions about what tools to use.
FixesHomebrew/homebrew#6406.
This is used with fails_with_llvm so that if GCC cannot be found (and we suspect this is the case with Xcode 4.2) the build will fail.
Quite possibly it should be the default.
Executing `curl(*patches)` was failing on Leopard when `patches` was an empty
list. `git-bisect` identified 48552bb42a69ece4eb2a6d9acf81a0b47adb19c9 as the
commit that caused this bug to surface by adding `--insecure` to the arg list
on Leopard. This is odd because the following both exit with status 2:
curl
curl --insecure
The only apparent difference is that `curl --insecure` prints "no URL
specified!" to stderr along with the usage message.
Also renamed `patches` to `external_patches` as it is more descriptive.
Deprecated use_clang? etc. since the logic was such that multiple states could be set, when in reality only one compiler can be set.
Changed fails_with_llvm handling so if HOMEBREW_USE_LLVM is set then it tries to build even if the formula has fails_with_llvm set. Rationale: mostly they will no longer fail and we need to catch these cases.
Bottles now pour purely, without doing all the other unnecessary stuff that happened before the `brew upgrade` code shuffle.
Formula.pourable? removed since it was install-specific metadata and not related to the formula itself. Now all such logic is in the FormulaInstaller which is much cleaner.
I also changed the bottle cache location to the normal directory and added a .bottle pre-extension. Thus you can see everything in one directory without messing about.
* may be a problem if the constant is scoped (like A::B), but this is not the case
(const.split('::').inject(Object) { |c, part| c.const_get part } would solve that)
* this was noticed in a comment of 9afc85ad but it has disappeared

The code was sucking. To the extent that maintenance was hard. It's a lot
easier to work with code that is sensibly split at sensible boundaries. So
now it is more like that.
But the refactor is minimal. Because we don't want you to have more merge
hell than absolutely necessary.
If you merge you will need to pay attention to brew.h.rb (as it is deleted)
and bin/brew (as command logic is gone). It will be painful, but you will just
have to help git out by moving any changes around manually.
Note compatibility.rb. It ensures that any function renames or removals don't
break anything. We're pretty serious about backwards compatibility. And that's
because we encourage you to hack around with the innards. And we couldn't do
that if we would then just make stuff disappear behind your back.
