It's not perfect, but I like it fine. I definitely like it better than Fink and DarwinPorts, though those may be technically superior.
It's not super simple, but for your htop example, you could probably do something like the following:
# Create a new tap
brew tap-new $USER/local-tap
# Extract the specific version you want
brew extract --version=X.Y.Z htop $USER/local-tap
# Install the extracted version
brew install htop@X.Y.Z
I'm keeping an eye on the unofficial successor by the original author of Homebrew: https://pkgx.dev/ https://pkgx.dev/
- croemer 2y agoThanks, that almost worked, needed the following (extra --force tap of core and link --overwrite) brew tap-new $USER/local-tap brew tap homebrew/core --force brew extract --version=3.3.0 htop $USER/local-tap brew install $USER/local-tap/cmake@3.3.0 brew link --overwrite htop@3.3.0 Based mostly on https://www.ericbariaux.com/posts/brew_rollback/ https://www.ericbariaux.com/posts/brew_rollback/
- runjake 2y agoThanks. I appreciate the correction!
