Java is Required for 'brew install' #107

It is alarming Java is required to install from 'brew'

~ brew install git-credential-manager git-credential-manager: Java 1.6+ is required to install this formula. JavaRequirement unsatisfied! You can install with Homebrew Cask: brew cask install java You can download from: https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html

At least the brewd version is OpenJDK :-) Is this intended or a hanging requirement?

Do you have a version of Java installed outside of Homebrew?

jrbriggs commented 5 years ago

I'd recommend trying GCM Core's macOS preview release which does not have this requirement.
