Adrian Ho 7b0c9b121c Preliminary support for M1 builds
NOTE: I don't have an M1 box right now, so I can only test with a
non-`/usr/local` _Intel_ Homebrew install. This takes care of the
"`cc` shim forbids `/usr/local` paths unless `HOMEBREW_PREFIX` is
the same", but there may be other M1-specific issues.

gromgit's macOS FUSE stuff

This tap exists to support macOS FUSE-related software that have been dropped from Homebrew core.

How do I install these formulae?

First, if you've already installed FUSE formulae from the core tap before they were disabled, you might not want to switch over to my formulae, because:

  1. As far as I know, Homebrew will not remove them from your system, even after the formulae themselves are deleted.
  2. Many of these formulae are rather old, so you're unlikely to find updates anyway.

But if you do want to install my formulae over the core ones, you should uninstall the latter first:

brew uninstall XYZ
brew install gromgit/fuse/XYZ-mac

Documentation

brew help, man brew or check Homebrew's documentation.

FAQ

Why is XYZ not available?

Possible reasons:

  1. All available versions of XYZ require version 3 of the libfuse API, but macFUSE only supports v2.
  2. I might not have gotten around to getting it up. File an issue to get my attention. 😀

Why is XYZ so old?

Possible reasons:

  1. Current XYZ requires libfuse v3, so I found and bottled the last version that requires libfuse v2.
  2. XYZ was abandoned by its authors. If you know of a revived fork of such software, file an issue with the details and I'll see what can be done.
  3. I might not have gotten around to updating it yet. File an issue to get my attention. 😀

Why is your formula called XYZ-mac?

To avoid a naming conflict with the formula called XYZ that still exists in Homebrew core.

Why is the XYZ program installed as XYZ-mac?

brew info gromgit/fuse/XYZ-mac and read the Caveats section.

Why can't I build XYZ on an M1 Mac?

Homebrew currently filters out /usr/local entirely during M1-based builds. I'm still looking for a solution to this; for now, if you really need to run any of these formulae on an M1 Mac, you'll have to set up a Rosetta-based Homebrew installation:

arch -x86_64 /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
/usr/local/bin/brew install <FUSE_formula>
