Alternatively, until homebrew is updated you can run brew edit emacs and change the url and sha256 to match 24.4, then run brew install emacs with whatever options you would like (brew options emacs for a list). I haven't tested this yet, but it should work, and I will report back after I've tried.
edit: So this did work, I used the .tar.xz with sha256 47e391170db4ca0a3c724530c7050655f6d573a711956b4cd84693c194a9d4fd. One thing to note is that the old 24.3 stable formula has a bunch of patches applied that are no longer required, so you need to edit those out as well (this area: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/blob/master/Library/Formula/emacs.rb#L38-L66 https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/blob/master/Library/For...).
- dgempesaw 12y agoUpdate a few hours later: without having tried it myself, it looks like the formula for emacs has been updated to 24.4: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/commits/a0b095b/Library/Formula/emacs.rb https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/commits/a0b095b/Library...

- hollerith 12y agoThe Homebrew package for Emacs with Mac-specific changes by a professor named YAMAMOTO Mitsuharu has also been updated: https://github.com/railwaycat/homebrew-emacsmacport/commits/master https://github.com/railwaycat/homebrew-emacsmacport/commits/... For 2 or 3 years now, whenever I have compared the two, the current version of "Mitsuharu" Emacs has always had fewer Cocoa-related bugs than the current (release) version of "FSF Emacs" (i.e., Emacs without the professor's patches applied). I am writing this comment because this Mitsuharu fellow seems very reticent about promoting his own (excellent) work.
