When running brew -v install, long post_install output from the formula,
presumably from upstream, may hide the important instructions in the
caveats and confuse the user. For example, postgresql runs initdb which
prints its own instructions for running the database, making the caveats
scroll off screen.
Per xu-cheng's instructions in Homebrew/homebrew#42565 :
Remove the explicit call to caveats from the install, reinstall, and
upgrade commands, as well as the dependency installer code in
FormulaInstaller#install_dependency , and call caveats right before the
summary code in FormulaInstaller#finish .

Just equalises a little how we treat HEAD and devel. The former already
fails if there isn’t a head defined, It seemed logical that devel
should fail in the same way.

CannotInstallFormulaError is only raised when another version of the
formula is linked or any of its dependencies are unlinked, in which case
this warning is totally irrelevant. It should be checked after build
errors instead.
This reverts commit 466d0f718bc2241e830393b384294c21194995e0.
When installing or fetching and stuff goes wrong we can't always catch
the error and redirect to the tap. Instead, point to the tap before we
do anything failure-prone and hopefully that'll encourage people to
file issues in the right place. If not we can say that explicitly.
ClosesHomebrew/homebrew#33220.
If you do `brew install blah` it currently doesn't search for it. This
seems to be unintentional looking at this code as the exception thrown
by ARGV.formulae.each is not caught and handled. Instead, let's handle
this case and provide a little more usability around our taps.

I'd still like to make this change, but at least for now the initializer
requires ignore_deps to be set correctly.
This reverts commit 881a8855b944fa9bd7dfd598bb9197f79f7a13f0.
