It took me way too long of daily `brew update`s to notice something was wrong.
it's funny, but other than a few basic tools, most of what I get from homebrew is versionables (nvm, pyenv, etc) of other programming utilities, in that, I don't run brew update very often, usually only before installing something new via homebrew.
I also had to do this. Keep in mind that ```brew update``` might take a while to output anything when you do this (it did for me), and then it will ask you to wait while it migrates to a new directory.
Just want to point out that you could always add the --verbose flag to brew commands to see more progress information (in this case how brew calls git to update brew itself and each tap you have tapped, including the core tap).
Yep, me as well. Thanks!
If Homebrew was updated on Aug 10-11th 2016 and brew update always says "Already up-to-date". you need to run:
``` cd "$(brew --repo)" && git fetch && git reset --hard origin/master && brew update ```
I had to.
