In this attempt we pretend that the "global" configs are in the
repository itself.
$ XDG_CONFIG_HOME= HOME=$PWD git config --global section.key value
$ XDG_CONFIG_HOME= HOME=$PWD git config --global section.key
value
$ git config --global section.key
$ cat $PWD/.gitconfig
[section]
key = value
The existing instructions is perhaps not clear enough:
To add Homebrew to your `PATH` run `brew shellenv` in your shell
profile (e.g. `~/.bash_profile` or `~/.zprofile`)
Fixes#16803.
- Allow specifying user through `/var/tmp/.homebrew_pkg_user.plist`
- Improve permission handling
- Correctly write API cache
- Add `preinstall` script to fail if we can't get a valid user

- test on more macOS versions and improve the test names
- add a more resilient and less disruptive version of changing `git`'s
`safe.directory` configuration
- split jobs into build/test/deploy
- test package on both macOS Intel and Apple Silicon
- cleanup some argument handling
- use `HOMEBREW_MACOS_OLDEST_SUPPORTED` naming to be consistent with
`brew.sh`
- note in `brew.sh` that `Distribution.xml` also needs updated (and do
so)
- various other little bits of style cleanup
- use the system font instead of Helvetica
- cleanup font definitions
- add extra newline to `CONCLUSION.rtf` to next steps not showing up
without a click
- add actual hyperlinks to `CONCLUSION.rtf`
Fixes#15793
- This should help avoid this regressing
- Remove existing Homebrew installation(s)
- Install it twice to ensure that installing over the top of an existing
installation works as expected
- Remove existing API cache to ensure we have the freshest files from
the API in our package
Continuing with the goals of making the installer:
- more useful
- entirely offline
Let's pre-download the API data from a `brew update` run and install it
into the logged-in user's home directory.
While we're here, in the `postinstall` script:
- use longer arguments for various commands
- fix an issue with symlinking on Intel if `/usr/local/bin` doesn't
already exist
- unset `bash -x` and use `-v` on more commands instead
- don't include GitHub Actions credentials
- generate and include RTF version of Homebrew BSD license
- create nicer installer with `productbuild`
- customise welcome/conclusion messages
- add Homebrew logo as a background image
- remove unnecessary `preinstall` script
- cleanup `postinstall` script to pass `brew doctor`
- use `Distribution.xml` for a nicer installer
- require CLT or Xcode rather than using our hacks to try and install
CLT during installation
