  • Have you followed the guidelines for contributing?
  • Have you ensured that your commits follow the commit style guide?
  • Have you checked that there aren't other open pull requests for the same formula update/change?
  • Have you built your formula locally with HOMEBREW_NO_INSTALL_FROM_API=1 brew install --build-from-source <formula>, where <formula> is the name of the formula you're submitting?
  • Is your test running fine brew test <formula>, where <formula> is the name of the formula you're submitting?
  • Does your build pass brew audit --strict <formula> (after doing HOMEBREW_NO_INSTALL_FROM_API=1 brew install --build-from-source <formula>)? If this is a new formula, does it pass brew audit --new <formula>?

Currently, swapping the default python (the one aliased to python3) requires carefully copy/pasting logic to remove conflicts from the previous default to the new one. Let's simplify the process by defining a altinstall? helper instead. The only manual changes left can't be dynamic (the link_overwrites and the caveats)

This will help introducing Python 3.14 in #245931
