homebrew 이용 특정버전 설치

Simple Workflow

Step 1:

Navigate to your homebrew base directory (usually this is /usr/local) Example:

cd /usr/local

Or, you can do

cd `brew --prefix`

Step 2:

Enter brew versions <formula> ( is the formula you want to install).

You will then get something like:

1.0.1 git checkout 1234567 Library/Formula/<formula>.rb
1.0.0 git checkout 0123456 Library/Formula/<formula>.rb
...

Step 3:

Choose the desired version and check it out via copy and paste of the desired version line (leave out the version number in the beginning).

Example for getting 1.0.0:

git checkout 0123456 Library/Formula/<formula>.rb

Step 3.5 (maybe necessary)

Do this if you already have another version installed.

brew unlink <formula>

Step 4:

brew install <formula>

Step 5:

DONE, you can now use brew switch <formula> <version> to switch between versions.
