Mention homebrew as an installation option for `btp` CLI

Open Quaffel opened this issue 9 months ago • 2 comments

Issue description

The btp CLI is now available through homebrew for both Linux and macOS. Homebrew is a reputable package manager that is also mentioned as an installation option on other pages on the SAP Help portal, e.g., for installing the Cloud Foundry CLI (link). Even some SAP software is officially distributed through Homebrew, e.g., SapMachine (link).

Homebrew's btp cask (src) downloads the software from the official website (https://tools.hana.ondemand.com) and also respects the EULA that the user has to confirm when downloading the software on that site.
