MikeMcQuaidToday I’d like to announce Homebrew 1.1.0. We’ve had a great response to Homebrew 1.0.0 and been iterating on our work there. That 1.1.0 follows 1.0.9 is a happy coincidence due to breaking changes; in the future we may have a e.g. 1.1.10.
1.1.0 contains some breaking changes:
- Disable SHA-1 checksum support in formulae
- Disable running Homebrew as the
rootuser (e.g.sudo brew) - Bottles with
_or_latertags no longer use_or_laterin their filenames so the existing bottle can be reused
Some of the changes since 1.0.0 I’d like to highlight are the following:
- A branch named
stable(rather thanmaster) is used for following Homebrew/brew tags brew test-bothas moved to its own tapbrew infonow also listsRequirements(e.g.depends_on :foo) as well as dependencies- RuboCop configured so RuboCop-supporting editors get the correct messaging for editing files in Homebrew/brew and
Library/Taps - External
brewcommands can now use#:comments to automatically have rich--helpoutput - The
brew.1manpage points to official external commands (brew bundle,brew cask,brew services) - OS X Mavericks (10.9) and above now use BSD tar’s libarchive LZMA support rather than needing to install
xz - A
brew tap-newcommand is available for creating a new tap with aREADMEand preconfigured Travis CI file (.travis.yml) - Bottle/binary package creation and extraction has been sped up
brewoutput has been improved whengitis not installed- A new
brew cask reinstallcommand was added brew infonow lists required option builds in dependencies output
Enjoy using Homebrew!
