Overview

Installation on Mac

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"

Note that mac-setup will install brew automatically if it does not find it.

Installation will deploy the following:

/usr/local/bin/brew
/usr/local/share/doc/homebrew
/usr/local/share/man/man1/brew.1
/usr/local/share/zsh/site-functions/_brew
/usr/local/etc/bash_completion.d/brew
/usr/local/Homebrew

It will also create the following directories:

/usr/local/Cellar
/usr/local/Homebrew
/usr/local/Frameworks
/usr/local/bin
/usr/local/etc
/usr/local/include
/usr/local/lib
/usr/local/opt

/usr/local/share/zsh/site-functions
/usr/local/var

Installation on Linux

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"

It protests if attempting to install as root.

After installation:

echo 'eval "$(/home/nonroot/.linuxbrew/bin/brew shellenv)"' >> /home/nonroot/.bash_profile
eval "$(/home/nonroot/.linuxbrew/bin/brew shellenv)"
