mislav/bump-homebrew-formula-action fails with "unexpected HTTP 303 response" because GitHub's tarball endpoint now returns 303 instead of 302 and the action only handles 302 (mislav/bump-homebrew-formula-action#342). Switch to Homebrew's own `brew bump-formula-pr` CLI, preinstalled on the runner, which follows the redirect correctly. This also removes a third-party pinned-action dependency. Behaviour is preserved: same source tarball URL, computed SHA-256, PR forked via gittools-bot, and the GitTools Bot committer identity used by previous release PRs.

Problem
The Publish to Homebrew workflow fails immediately with:
This is an upstream defect in
mislav/bump-homebrew-formula-action: GitHub's tarball redirect endpoint (HEAD /repos/{owner}/{repo}/tarball/{ref}) began returning HTTP 303 instead of 302 around 2026-05-16, and the action'sresolveRedirectonly accepts 302. The fix (mislav/bump-homebrew-formula-action#342) is still unmerged, so the6.8.0Homebrew PR was never opened.Change
Replace the third-party action with Homebrew's own
brew bump-formula-prCLI (preinstalled on themacos-latestrunner), which follows the redirect correctly.Behaviour is preserved:
brew bump-formula-pr)download-url: .../tags/${version}.tar.gz--url "$url"(same pattern)--sha256fromcurl … | shasum -a 256push-to: gittools-bot/homebrew-core--fork-org gittools-botCOMMITTER_TOKEN(1Password)HOMEBREW_GITHUB_API_TOKEN(same token)GitTools Bot <gittoolsbot@outlook.com>git config+HOMEBREW_GIT_*Side benefits: removes a pinned third-party action dependency and uses tooling Homebrew maintains.
Notes
