How to get Ruby / Homebrew / RVM to work on Yosemite?

Question

After installing Yosemite, I was unable to run brew or ruby.

I was getting this error on brew update:

/usr/local/bin/brew: /usr/local/Library/brew.r         


        

Answer 1

Editing the script means brew update won't work; there are local edits to tracked files which causes the git pull to fail.

I did this, which I suspect is cleaner:

cd /usr/local/Library
git pull -q origin refs/heads/master:refs/remotes/origin/master

There are no complaints from brew doctor.
