And this indeed also affects Azure Pipelines.

Since Junio's workflow is very different from GitHub Flow (where this
issue would be worked around with a simple, single Pull Request), we have
no prayer at a workaround on our side, though: pretty much *all* of the
next builds of Junio's branches will be broken, unless he chooses to
backport your patch to all of the base commits he chose for those
branches.

So our best bet at not getting overwhelmed with failed builds is to help
Homebrew get `brew update --quiet` to work again. I just opened a ticket
to that end:

	https://github.com/Homebrew/brew/issues/5666

I do like your patch, though, and am very much in favor of fast-tracking
it all the way down to `maint`.

Ciao,
Dscho
