- add `HOMEBREW_PRODUCT` global variable - only differentiate between `/usr/local` and `non-/usr/local` Homebrew prefixes to avoid sharing sensitive user information - note if e.g. build errors are occurring under CI - Add `HOMEBREW_NO_ANALYTICS` variable (this will be how people opt-out when this is enabled for everyone) - Add `HOMEBREW_ANALYTICS_DEBUG` variable to output all the analytics that are sent - Move Bash analytics code to `Library/Homebrew/utils/analytics.sh` - Add documentation for our analytics and why/what/when/how and opt-out - Only official Homebrew commands are reported - Ruby analytics are now reported in a forked, background process
README
Homebrew installs the stuff you need that Apple didn’t.
- Install Homebrew
- Frequently Asked Questions
- Tips and Tricks
- Gems, Eggs and Perl Modules
- Homebrew and Python
Please note: Homebrew is not 1.0 yet. Generally it works well, but when it doesn’t we’d hope you report the bug.
Troubleshooting
First, please run brew update (twice) and brew doctor.
Second, please read the Troubleshooting Checklist.
If you don’t follow these steps it will take us far longer to help you with your problem.
However! Fixing build issues is easier than you think: try
brew edit $FORMULA and see how you fare.
