Update link thanks to @cloudnthings.
Mar 16, 2016 at 23:01 comment added cloudnthings Note that the link to the Homebrew FAQ should be updated from github.com/mxcl/homebrew/wiki/FAQ/… to github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/blob/master/share/doc/homebrew/… (I can't edit or add comments).
Feb 20, 2013 at 21:04 comment added ipavlic I did read the documentation, I just thought that might be an useful question to ask for future reference. I do have problems with the instructions though, which I posted as a separate question: apple.stackexchange.com/questions/82863/…

Feb 20, 2013 at 13:57 comment added bmike I would check that the cd `brew --prefix` goes to a folder that you don't have normal git files checked in since an old / malfunctioning setup might fail and the deletion of git ls-files could delete something other than the remains of your brew.
