Description

It is cumbersome to download an executable from GitHub and put it into /usr/local/bin whenever a new release comes out. Life would be a lot easier if I could download dtm by running brew install dtm and upgrade it by running brew upgrade dtm.

Describe the Proposal

Add a new formulae to Homebrew. See https://docs.brew.sh/Adding-Software-to-Homebrew

Has the Feature been Requested Before?

no

Thanks for this great proposal.

Please hold on for a moment; we probably need to fork homebrew into another org.

It seems like we can't put devstream to homebrew-core according to: https://docs.brew.sh/Acceptable-Formulae#we-dont-like-binary-formulae

Our policy is that formulae in the core tap (homebrew/core) must be open-source with an Debian Free Software Guidelines license

DevStream has Apache 2.0 license and it seems it's not DFSG-free.

I propose we maintain a new tap: https://docs.brew.sh/How-to-Create-and-Maintain-a-Tap

For now, please use this one https://github.com/devstream-io/homebrew-devstream and create a PR there. Thanks!
