1，问题描述
最近想在 mac 电脑上通过 brew 命令安装个 Nginx 服务，但执行后报如下错误：
Traceback (most recent call last):

2，问题解决
（1）这是因为 Mac 在升级后，之前旧版本的 Homebrew 在新系统不适配。我们直接执行如下命令更新到最新版本的 Homebrew 就可以了：
升级的期间可能会要求输入 github 的邮箱账号和密码，注意：
- 用户名这里输入的是邮箱账号，不是用户名。
- 密码部分由于 GitHub 认证策略的改变，现在要输入 token，token 获取方式可以参考我写的另一篇文章（点击查看）
brew update-reset
（2）更新后执行如下命令查看版本：
brew --version
