brew-bundle: Create a Brewfile from all installed packages.
$ brew bundle dump
try on your machine
The command "brew bundle dump" is used in the Homebrew package manager for macOS.
- "brew" refers to the Homebrew executable.
- "bundle" is a command within Homebrew that allows users to manage their Homebrew-installed packages using a Brewfile.
- "dump" is an argument passed to the "bundle" command that instructs Homebrew to generate a Brewfile based on the currently installed packages.
When you run "brew bundle dump," Homebrew analyzes the currently installed packages and generates a Brewfile, which is essentially a text file containing a list of all the packages and their versions. This Brewfile can be used later to easily reinstall all the listed packages on another system using the "brew bundle" command.
