None of the above worked for me. Keep getting permissions errors when updating homebrew.

Example Permission Denied Error:

/Users/{insert username}/Library/Caches/Homebrew/api/formula_names.before.txt: Permission denied The solution that worked was just deleting the cache files:

sudo rm -rf ~/Library/Caches/Homebrew/

Additionally, ran the following for good measure:

sudo chown -R {your username}:admin ~/Library/Caches/Homebrew/
sudo chmod -R 755 ~/Library/Caches/Homebrew/

Then reinstall Homebrew: /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"

worked for me on Sonoma 14.5, thanks bro

Nice~,Think you!
