Hello 👋 . I'm a maintainer for the Homebrew project. I'm opening this issue to inform the nerd-fonts maintainers of the upcoming deprecation of Homebrew/cask-fonts. All fonts will be migrated to the main Homebrew/cask repo.

We will migrate all nerd-fonts to the main Homebrew/cask repo and introduce a redirect so existing users will seem seamlessly transitioned. I would like to work together to find a time the nerd-fonts release workflow can be updated, and migrate the fonts at the same time so there is no disconnect. Please let me know if there are any questions.

cc @Finii who I've worked with before on this.

Thank you for the information! 👍

I believe the change in our workflow will be easy. Was busy today and will be tomorrow, but I will come back to this on the weekend.

[why]
The Cask-fonts repo has been incorporated into the main Cask repo.
On releases we would use an obsolete repository to create the Cask into.

The casks are now in a dedicated subdirectory (Casks/font) and under that
we have one subdirectory for each font name starting character (to have a
smaller number of files per directory I assume).

[how]
Change the repository path.

Put part of the new (longer) path, the fixed part, just in the CI process,
while the generator script takes care about the one-directory-per-startchar
substructure.

Fixes: #1635
