`cleanup_path` already handles the dry-run logic, and also includes
those paths in the summary of space freed by `brew cleanup`.
Before this change:
❯ brew cleanup --dry-run
Would remove: /Users/carlocab/Library/Caches/Homebrew/bootsnap (2,401 files, 41.9MB)
After this change:
❯ brew cleanup --dry-run
Would remove: /Users/carlocab/Library/Caches/Homebrew/bootsnap (2,401 files, 41.9MB)
==> This operation would free approximately 41.9MB of disk space.
Inside a given `site-packages` directory, *.pyc files live in
`__pycache__` directories. These are created by the Python interpreter
when a module is imported in order to speed up future access to the
imported module.
These can be left behind when formulae are uninstalled, which results in
erroneous success in importing the modules they were originally compiled
for.
Let's fix that by cleaning these up. In the top-level `__pycache__`
directory, we use the `Pathname#prune?` extension in order to determine
whether a `*.pyc` file is old enough to clean up. In other directories,
we clean them up when they are all that remains in a given module's
tree.
Removing these `*.pyc` files will make `python3` regenerate them when
required, so deleting them is relatively safe. The worst consequence is
slightly slower module import times.
Closes#13701.
Cleanup.rb:
- Added #autoremove method
- #autoremove is called in clean when HOMEBREW_AUTOREMOVE is set
Formula.rb:
- Added #unused_formulae_with_no_dependents and helpers
Removed old autoremove.rb module.
Output hints for disabling automatic `brew update`, `brew cleanup` and
`brew upgrade`/`brew reinstall` of dependents. Also provide a
`HOMEBREW_NO_ENV_HINTS` to disable this messaging.
There's a few bits of functionality that Homebrew has changed over the
years, makes sense as a sensible default but some people find really
annoying:
- automatically running `brew update`
- automatically running `brew cleanup`
- automatically upgrading outdated dependents
- automatically reinstalling broken dependents
For each of these: let's improve the documentation of the commands
whose behaviour is changed and the environment variables themselves.
This allows users to set `HOMEBREW_NO_CLEANUP_FORMULAE` to a
comma-separated list of formulae that `brew` will refuse to clean with
`brew cleanup`.
We currently allow a less granular version of this with
`HOMEBREW_NO_INSTALL_CLEANUP`. All this changes is how much control
users have over what is and isn't cleaned.
Fixes#11924.
- Write a subset of the tab required for bottles as an annotation.
- Add option on new bottle creation to skip writing tab into bottle
and instead add it (and other useful metadata) to bottle JSON.
- Read formula information and tab from bottle JSON.
- Write prettier JSON to disk.
- Don't write `HEAD` to tab; this duplicates `HOMEBREW_VERSION`.
- Allow `brew bottle` to use `--json` to generate JSON files from a
local bottle file.
