- Add the same macOS `--build-from-source` default prefix behaviour
now we have ~4000 linuxbrew-core bottles.
- Merge remaining useful linuxbrew-core-Maintainer-Guide into
Homebrew-homebrew-core-Maintainer-Guide
- Don't special-case linuxbrew-core any more in docs
Anywhere we can use `blob/master` we can use `blob/HEAD` instead. This
will make life easier if we ever rename our default branch in future
(once/if Git and GitHub provides the necessary tooling to do so).
- This had been a continual source of pain, and was fixed by 359dc96.
- Now, `brew bump-formula-pr` should be seamless on Linux, which means
less work for maintainers, which means fewer words are needed here.
- We recently changed the name of the Linux commands tap from
Linuxbrew/homebrew-developer to Homebrew/homebrew-linux-dev in our
continual efforts to move away from the Linuxbrew name. Related to
this, we changed the comment produced by `brew build-bottle-pr` to
simply "Linux".
- We also [changed `brew
find-formulae-to-bottle`](https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-linux-dev/pull/130)
so that it will build a bottle for a formula even if it has a macOS
requirement. There were cases like `go` that build perfectly fine on
Linux.
- There are a lot more manual steps in Homebrew on Linux (Linuxbrew)
land than there are in Homebrew (core), it feels like.
- This is a first attempt at a maintainer's guide. I have basically
tried to brain-dump everything that Michka and Shaun have taught me
over the months into something consumable for future Homebrew on Linux
maintainers!
- Some of it is overly verbose - the merging docs are taken from
[Linuxbrew/homebrew-developer's docs](https://github.com/Linuxbrew/homebrew-developer/blob/master/docs/merge-homebrew-core.md)
which were recently updated to reflect reality but probably don't need
to have so many words: just some instructions. :-)
