How do I list all formulas I installed with brew install --HEAD. Certain formulas depend of more recent version of a formula and upgrade every time I run brew upgrade if a commit has been pushed, I wish to check if the dependency has been satisfied and install normal version.

This was the case where neovim nightly(5.0.0) where it required HEAD version of luarocks (Undocumented in release page) and recently just works with normal installation

    Welcome to Ask Different. This seems like an XY question. What are you trying to do with this once you have a list? There may be an easier way to accomplish the end goal - but it’s ok to just ask this if you can clarify what you expect the results to look like.
