Meanwhile, homebrew install instructions:

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/inst...)"

Then it prompts user for admin previledges. Also, it does not support installing as a local non-admin user.

I would agree if it was the only way to install Homebrew, but it is not.

You can install it via a .pkg here: [0]

Does it still do the "you can't install via sudo, that's a security risk" while not allowing a non-admin install? I laugh and I cry.

Why does anyone trust that project to understand security?
