    BrewBar 0.1 (beta) Pre-release

    maxsoch released this 2026-07-09 16:52:17 +00:00 | 24 commits to main since this release

    First public pre-release of BrewBar — a macOS menu bar app to monitor and upgrade Homebrew packages.

    Note: this replaces the earlier 1.0 tag. The app was re-versioned to 0.1 to reflect that it is still beta quality; expect rough edges and breaking changes between 0.x releases.

    Highlights

    • 🔄 Periodic update checks — configurable from 30 minutes to 24 hours
    • 📋 Outdated package list with versions, one-click single upgrades
    • 📦 Upgrade All, with an optional confirmation dialog
    • 🤖 Optional auto-upgrade, separately configurable for formulae and casks
    • 👀 Self-updating casks (--greedy) included in checks, can be disabled
    • 🔔 Optional notification when new updates appear
    • 🔑 Native password dialog when an upgrade needs admin rights
    • 📜 Log window with the full brew output
    • ⚙️ Launch at login

    Install

    brew tap maxsoch/brewbar https://forgejo.socheleau.fr/maxsoch/BrewBar.git
brew install --cask maxsoch/brewbar/brewbar
xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/BrewBar.app

    The app is signed with a Development certificate but not notarized, hence the quarantine-clearing step (the cask prints it as a caveat).
