Please update available releases for brew

[bitsofinfo]

Trying to brew upgrade helmfile and just getting the older versions as the only ones available.

Hey! Thanks for reporting. The homebrew formula isn't maintained by me - Would you anyone mind sending PRs to it?

It looks like it's done by @chenrui333. e.g: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/46832

Release v0.90.9 was skipped and now I can't see how to install older releases with brew:

$ brew info helmfile
helmfile: stable 0.92.1 (bottled)
Deploy Kubernetes Helm Charts
https://github.com/roboll/helmfile
/usr/local/Cellar/helmfile/0.92.1 (5 files, 35.3MB)
  Poured from bottle on 2019-11-18 at 15:08:23
From: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/master/Formula/helmfile.rb
==> Dependencies
Build: go ✘
Required: helm ✔

Any ideas? Would be great to be able to install all releases using brew 😃

@max-rocket-internet Unfortunately brew doesn't provide a way to easily install old versions, as far as I know 😢

@mumoshu @max-rocket-internet This is a good post about using the old brew versions. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3987683/homebrew-install-specific-version-of-formula

If the version is really important and break from release to release, we might consider to pin the version. I can help with it for sure. :)

I think I've come to the same conclusion. Such a shame 😐

If the version is really important and break from release to release

With Helm 3, it's very important. It's a major release and it's changed behaviour in really significant ways (3 way merge, for example.

So we need to pin to Helmfile version v0.90.9 and Helm version 2.16.1. Maybe I'll start using Ansible on Mac for software management unless you two have better options or ideas?

@max-rocket-internet Helm 2 is still maintained, use brew install helm@2 to install.
