Now that helix is packaged in homebrew-core, I don't think it's necessary to run the tap anymore.

It's difficult to install a formula from a tap because core has higher precedence than taps: you need to first tap helix brew tap helix-editor/homebrew-helix and then brew install helix-editor/homebrew-helix/helix (https://docs.brew.sh/Taps#formula-with-duplicate-names).

We should also deprecate the tap by opening a PR here: https://github.com/brewsci/homebrew-science/blob/master/tap_migrations.json

The homebrew package should also remove grammar sources.

The homebrew package should also remove grammar sources.

Just upstreamed this in Homebrew/homebrew-core#108657 👍

For deprecating the tap, do you mean to create a tap_migrations.json in the homebrew-helix repo? Looks like we should delete the formula there too to truly deprecate the tap: https://docs.brew.sh/Migrating-A-Formula-To-A-Tap. I'll make a PR

No, looks like taps use a centralized tap_migrations.json in that repo

I think those are only for the formulas that were packaged in that tap
