Previously, old mirrors are only removed if the requested spec is
stable, and if the mirror lines only have two leading spaces. This leads
to stale mirror line(s) when the formula a stable block like
stable do
url "http://example.com/v1.0.tar.gz"
mirror "http://example.net/v1.0.tar.gz"
end
where the mirror line is lead by four spaces.
In this commit, we discard the /(^ mirror .*\n)?/ pattern, and instead
create a pattern with the exact url and flexible leading spaces for each
mirror of the requested spec.
These were formerly supported but as it has been a very long time since
32-bit software was necessary on macOS these have been deprecated with
a `brew audit` warning and a future `odeprecated`.
meson is quickly gaining popularity as build system, in combination with
ninja. Several Gnome projects for example are currently transitioning
from autotools to meson, mostly because it allows for Visual Studio
builds, which is impossible to accomplish with autotools.
In order to facilitate generating meson based Formulas, I added support
for meson to brew-create.
At this point we probably do want to know about issues that crop up in
betas so we can fix them before the new version of Xcode is released.
Additionally, this doesn't really work well any more with our new
tag-based workflow as it means we need to cut a new tag immediately
after a new Xcode is released.
Add new `brew update-reset` command to provide a helpful troubleshooting
fallback to fetch and reset all repositories. This could have lived in
`brew update` but it makes sense to avoid the complexity of sharing
logic between these scripts and keeping this one simpler.
Check for Ruby files in taps that are outside of the detected `Formula`
directory for a tap but inside one of the other potential directories.
This usually indicates a formula has been added in the wrong directory
in a tap and is used to fail CI in this case.
Even if they're empty we want to keep these top-level directories around
as the installer has nicely created them with the correct permissions
and this avoids potentially having to use `sudo` to recreate them.

- Note some issues should be created on Homebrew/brew
