Hi,
This is my first PR, so I might need your patience. Sorry in advance for any rookie mistake.
I would like to have packages installed from source (brew install -s package
) specified in Brewfile
.
I'm trying to install neovim, but it depends on LuaJIT (which is in a weird spot right now)
The workaround is to install LuaJIT from source, which works just fine.
I keep my system packages in my dotfiles repository and would be ideal to have the luajit flagged as installed from source. Is this possible?

you can use args: ["--build-from-source"]
in your Brewfile definition.
brew "packagename", args: ["--build-from-source"]
