Error of “error: could not lock config file .git/config: Permission denied” occurs while installing Carthage

Question

I want to install carthage on my Mac OS using brew install carthage command. However, I get the following error:

touch: /usr/local/Homebrew/.git         


        

Answer 1

In my case this command working:

  sudo chown -R $(whoami) $(brew --prefix)/*

However, there is also an easier way of installing Carthage instead of commands line way. It is enough to download the latest package from this link and install it in a wizard way on you Mac.
