This has been super useful. Thanks for sharing 👍

Great Job!

nice gist!

there's an error though:

$ brew cask cleanup
...
Error: Unknown Cask command: cleanup

$ brew --version
Homebrew 2.2.5
Homebrew/homebrew-core (git revision c3dc; last commit 2020-02-12)
Homebrew/homebrew-cask (git revision 31d0d6; last commit 2020-02-12)

@bradp - very neat script - thank you 🙏

@gianpaj brew cask cleanup was deprecated - brew cleanup does it for casks too.

Homebrew installation doesn't work as is. Do this instead:

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
