I'm on an older version (0.9.5); how do I fix the ownership of my /usr/local tree? EDIT: I know how to `chown`, I mean more, what can I give back to root, what needs to remain under homebrew's control? Does the new version ship with a tool/command that does this?

`brew update` and check you've not hit the update bug: https://github.com/homebrew/brew#update-bug https://github.com/homebrew/brew#update-bug We'll tell you what permissions you need to keep/remove. Alternatively, uninstall and reinstall Homebrew and similarly we'll tell you on permissions.
