The code is viewable in [analytics.rb](https://github.com/Homebrew/brew/blob/master/Library/Homebrew/utils/analytics.rb) and [analytics.sh](https://github.com/Homebrew/brew/blob/master/Library/Homebrew/utils/analytics.sh). They are done in a separate background process and fail fast to avoid delaying any execution. They will fail immediately and silently if you have no network connection. -- cgit v1.2.3 From 03ace9b1104f1ddc2adc75a68531167d7e3ea7e0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mike McQuaid Date: Thu, 14 Sep 2017 19:58:37 +0100 Subject: Require more HTTP mirrors for old OS X versions. This allows the bootstrap of `curl` and `git` on versions of Mac OS X that cannot reliably download from HTTPS servers any longer.

Also, as we're doing this, don't point 10.5 users to Tigerbrew as they are already given caveats for using Homebrew itself. --- docs/Installation.md | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'docs') diff --git a/docs/Installation.md b/docs/Installation.md index e36ed3efa..9f091d2e5 100644 --- a/docs/Installation.md +++ b/docs/Installation.md @@ -47,7 +47,7 @@ PowerPC and Tiger branches from other users in the fork network.
