• Have you followed the guidelines for contributing?
• Have you ensured that your commits follow the commit style guide?
• Have you checked that there aren't other open pull requests for the same formula update/change?
• Have you built your formula locally with HOMEBREW_NO_INSTALL_FROM_API=1 brew install --build-from-source <formula>, where <formula> is the name of the formula you're submitting?
• Is your test running fine brew test <formula>, where <formula> is the name of the formula you're submitting?
• Does your build pass brew audit --strict <formula> (after doing HOMEBREW_NO_INSTALL_FROM_API=1 brew install --build-from-source <formula>)? If this is a new formula, does it pass brew audit --new <formula>?

This is the CLI for the the IOTA Testnet.

brew audit --new <formula> is failing with Error: These formulae are not in any locally installed taps!
Am I supposed to install my forked repository as tap? But then the formula is not on the master branch so it still wouldn't find it?

We don't want to ship release candidates, from the requirements page:

be stable (e.g. not declared “unstable” or “beta” by upstream)

Hi Sean, in this case RC is about our deployment which goes from Devnet (alpha/beta, unstable) to Testnet (rc, stable) to Mainnet (stable). RC is a finished and stable release but just not yet deployed on our Mainnet.
This is very similar to the sui formula but they have opted for a testnet- suffix https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/master/Formula/s/sui.rb#L4

[SMillerDev]

That one shouldn't ship testing level software either, we might want to disable that one.

What is it vendoring that it needs these things?
