If for any reason you find yourself in need of an older version, you have to perform some preparatory manual steps first. Unfortunately, Homebrew doesn’t provide an easy, out-of-the-box way to install an older version of a package. Homebrew will make the newly installed package accessible in your default path and it’s clever enough to not do so when what you have just installed clashes with an Apple-provided package. A few seconds later, Homebrew will pick the correct version of the package matching your macOS and make it available to your CLI. Search the package you need, type brew install, and that’s all. Installing with brew can’t be made any simpler. The name is intended to suggest the idea of building software on the Mac depending on the user’s taste.
