Who is "you" in the context of a distributed version control system? I think this is not just the plural you, but the unbounded you -- it's all people who not just interact with your project now, but who you hope may interact with it in the future. The question is what the cost is of committing a near-infinite population to this migration, not the cost of doing a single `brew update` on your personal machine, no?
Just clone the repo again. Jesus Christ, you act like the simplest thing in the world is some kind of insurmountable challenge.
