I try to avoid installing anything with brew, because I can't install a new package without first upgrading all my other packages, which often leads to one of them breaking in not-so-fun ways (e.g. an openssl upgrade breaking my Python installation).

- chatmasta 3y agoThanks for this. In case anyone finds this in the future, note that after setting this, and running `brew install blah`, it will output "Running `brew update --auto-update`..." and then appear to hang. Just press ctrl+c and it will continue to installation.

It allowed me to keep the version of Docker working while other casks could be changed [0] https://github.com/buo/homebrew-cask-upgrade https://github.com/buo/homebrew-cask-upgrade
