Summary

Adds a homebrew formula for gitui, as requested in gitui-org/gitui#2808.

What's Included

Formula/gitui.rb

  • Pre-built binary formula (no compilation needed)
  • Platform support:
    • macOS Apple Silicon (arm64) — gitui-mac.tar.gz
    • macOS Intel (x86_64) — gitui-mac-x86.tar.gz
    • Linux x86_64gitui-linux-x86_64.tar.gz
    • Linux aarch64gitui-linux-aarch64.tar.gz
  • SHA256 hashes verified from the v0.28.1 release assets
  • Basic test: gitui --version

Updated README

  • Installation instructions for the tap

Usage

brew tap gitui-org/tap
brew install gitui-org/tap/gitui

Future Work

A GitHub Actions workflow can be added to automatically update the formula when new releases are tagged. I have a working workflow ready but couldn't push it due to OAuth scope limitations — happy to add it in a follow-up PR if desired.

Ref

gitui-org/gitui#2808

- Add Formula/gitui.rb with pre-built binaries for:
  - macOS Apple Silicon (arm64)
  - macOS Intel (x86_64)
  - Linux x86_64
  - Linux aarch64
- SHA256 hashes verified from v0.28.1 release assets
- Update README with tap installation instructions

Usage:
  brew tap gitui-org/tap
  brew install gitui-org/tap/gitui

A GitHub Actions workflow for auto-updating the formula on new releases
can be added separately (requires workflow scope permissions).
