I recently upgraded my Mac from 10.13 to 10.14 and I can't seem to find my Homebrew. /usr/local is practically empty; just MySQL remains. Does brew get removed after an OS upgrade? Should I install it from scratch? What about the packages I installed using homebrew on the older version?

Best Answer
You should run
brew update
and see what happens. If Homebrew refuses to run, reinstall it using the command at https://brew.sh.You should then run
brew upgrade
to make sure you're running the latest packages. Ifbrew list
shows no packages, then it looks like you'll have to re-install these packages.
