 # Homebrew Core
 Core formulae for the Homebrew package manager.
 
-## Update Bug
-If Homebrew was updated on Aug 10-11th 2016 and `brew update` always says `Already up-to-date.` you need to run:
-```bash
-cd "$(brew --repo)" && git fetch && git reset --hard origin/master && brew update
-```
-
 ## How do I install these formulae?
 Just `brew install <formula>`. This is the default tap for Homebrew and is installed by default.
