My initial reaction is that this doesn't seem like a good idea. Emacs already has a package manager which works across platforms. If you use homebrew to configure your emacs instance on OSX how are you going to provision an equivalent emacs instance on e.g. a linux VM?
- edavis 12y agoTrue, but that isn't a scenario I have to deal with. My development machines are both OSX. If I need an emacs editor on a linux box, I fire up mg. I just haven't needed to provision emacs on a non-OSX machine for years now. If cross-platform package support is a requirement, then this project is definitely not sufficient. But as every development tool I use is already managed by Homebrew, this is the more natural extension for me — not ELPA.
