Features, usage and installation instructions are summarized on the homepage.

This is a fork adding basic PowerPC support, so it will update from that fork by default instead of the master Homebrew branch.

To quickly install the PowerPC branch under /usr/local, use the following:

curl -Lskf http://github.com/sceaga/homebrew/tarball/powerpc | tar -xvzf - -C/usr/local --strip 1

Then install git and run an update:

brew install git

brew update

Note: The above assumes your /usr/local is setup with the following permissions:

drwxrwxr-x 14 root staff 476B Oct 19 14:35 /usr/local

And the user you are using has admin access (part of "staff" group).

1. You can browse the Formula directory on GitHub.
2. Or type brew search for a list.
3. Or run brew server to browse packages off of a local web server.
4. Or visit braumeister.org to browse packages online.

brew help or man brew or check our wiki.
