brew plugin

The plugin adds several aliases for common brew commands.

To use it, add brew to the plugins array of your zshrc file:

plugins=(... brew)

Aliases

Alias Command Description
brewp brew pin Pin a specified formula so that it's not upgraded.
brews brew list -1 List installed formulae or the installed files for a given formula.
brewsp brew list --pinned List pinned formulae, or show the version of a given formula.
bubo brew update && brew outdated Update Homebrew and all formulae, then list outdated formulae.
bubc brew upgrade && brew cleanup Upgrade outdated formulae, then run cleanup.
bubu bubo && bubc Do the last two operations above.
bcubo brew update && brew cask outdated Update Homebrew and alll formulae, then list outdated casks.
bcubc brew cask reinstall $(brew cask outdated) && brew cleanup Update outdated casks, then run cleanup.

Completion

With the release of Homebrew 1.0, they decided to bundle the zsh completion as part of the brew installation, so we no longer ship it with the brew plugin; now it only has brew aliases. If you find that brew completion no longer works, make sure you have your Homebrew installation fully up to date.
