This rewrite attempts to sort out where the Prefix, Cellar, and
Repository are relative to the real and symlinked 'brew' command.
Also included is a --config option which dumps all of these variables.
Any top-level script must define a "BREW_FILE" that gives the path
to brew as it exists in the path. 'brew' itself just uses __FILE__ and
install.rb does a `which brew` (there may be a better way?)
The Prefix is always relative to the location of brew as it exists in
the path. Thus, whether or not /usr/local/bin/brew is a symlink or real
file, the Prefix is always /usr/local. If you have brew in some other
prefix, such as /nonstandard/bin/brew, then '/nonstandard/ will be
managed by brew instead.
The Repository, Cellar, and "Library/Homebrew" required code is always
found relative to the "real" path or brew. If brew is a real file in
/usr/local/bin/brew, then everything else will be found in /usr/local
and we'll expect a /usr/local/.git
Otherwise, we dereference brew's symlink and look for everything else
relative to that path instead.
Using an error pipe.
The use of ENV[HOMEBREW_ERROR_PIPE] feels wrong, but I wasn't sure how else to
proxy the file descriptor to the child process since the fork immediately
calls exec.
I found yet another instance where the escaping wasn't perfect, so got fed up and just did it in Ruby. I hope this works for all existing usage. It should.
The bonus here is that you can use RegExps now.
During the link step, if the destination symlink already exists, unlink it, and create a directory instead, then relink the original contents. Then continue linking the formula in question.

GitDownloadStrategy and MercurialDownloadStrategy
now can be used like this:
head 'git://server/repo.git', :branch => 'stable'
head 'hg://server/repo/', :tag => '1.0.4'
HFS+ handles the + fine. However the Ruby class name needs a s/+/x/g.
I acknowledge that supporting + will make it harder to port to certain other
filesystems. However that's your challenge! :D
The classes better reflect their contents. I'm sure this change may be
contentious, but I am a sucker for trying to create source bases that are easy
to get to grips with and easy to navigate.
brewkit.rb is now a deprecated file.
This works better as it comes after any keg-only deps change ENV, but also it needs to happen after brewkit is required and that only happens in install now.
brewkit.rb changes ENV destructively, so lets not do that everytime a formula
is required. Now it's possible for other tools to require a formula
description without worrying about side-effects.
This reverts commit a1ed2cb19706e317d34f1a9f2efe8a2d2388afae.
The is running part of the Applescript didn't seem to prevent Safari getting
loaded when it wasn't running when used via osascript. It worked in
ScriptEditor! Honest!
Also we decided that it probably wouldn't work often enough anyway.

Also only set ARCHFLAGS on non-Core Duo machines... though it seemed to build
fine even with it, it doenst make much sense to me... these changes are kind
of up for debate but it "works for me" this way...
ClosesHomebrew/homebrew#75
We don't duplicate, so libxml and that are already provided by OS X. Mercurial is provided by easy_install.
I'm adding this to save people contributing stuff that we won;t accept. I hate disappointing people :(
