Distribute OSX release as a Homebrew formula #1779
@halr9000

Description

@halr9000

As a devops type nerd, I want to be able to install and update PowerShell/OSX via the CLI, and also with my preferred packaging tool, namely Homebrew (http://brew.sh).

Yes, the the OSX native installer packages (.pkg) can be installed via CLI (with the installer command), but it requires sudo. AFAICT, PowerShell is installed to /usr/local/bin and does not require sudo at all otherwise.

Homebrew is basically the de-facto CLI package manager on OSX like choco.exe is on Windows. It does not require sudo for packages to be installed.
