Description
This has already been reported and a workaround provided in https://github.com/tobi/try/issues/59 but the actual problem has not been fixed.
A couple solutions:
-
Rename the repo to
homebrew-tryin order to be compliant with Homebrew conventions. -
Update the
README.mdto document the correct Homebrew installation,brew tap tobi/try https://github.com/tobi/try brew install try
❯ brew tap tobi/try
==> Auto-updating Homebrew...
Adjust how often this is run with `$HOMEBREW_AUTO_UPDATE_SECS` or disable with
`$HOMEBREW_NO_AUTO_UPDATE=1`. Hide these hints with `$HOMEBREW_NO_ENV_HINTS=1` (see `man brew`).
==> Auto-updated Homebrew!
==> Updated Homebrew from 3b5b4903b0 to c3790fc6e4.
Updated 4 taps (sst/tap, charmbracelet/tap, homebrew/core and homebrew/cask).

elgato-studio: Capture and manage Elgato devices for content creation
