Verlauf
Projektgeschichte und Nutzung
mac-cleanup-go is a Go-based macOS cleanup utility that presents cleanup targets in a terminal UI before anything is deleted. Its README describes a preview-first workflow for caches, logs, temporary files, selected app data, Docker, Homebrew, and developer-tool caches.
Projektgeschichte
The public GitHub repository was created in January 2026 and the project quickly iterated through a 1.x release series. Release notes show early work on preview and confirmation UI, Docker item handling, a command-line cleaning mode in v1.3.10, and expanded cleanup coverage through v1.5.0 and v1.5.1.
The project positions itself as a safer, interactive alternative to broad cleanup scripts: risky categories are unselected by default, SIP-protected paths are excluded, and manual categories surface guidance rather than automatically deleting data.
Adoptionsgeschichte
The README documents Homebrew as the primary install path, with GitHub Releases as an alternative. Homebrew formula analytics reported 2,099 installs over 365 days for mac-cleanup-go at the time of this batch.
GitHub repository metadata showed several hundred stars and releases by mid-2026, suggesting fast early adoption for a young macOS utility rather than long-established cross-platform packaging.
Wie es verwendet wird
Typical interactive use is `mac-cleanup`, then selecting categories, previewing items, excluding anything to keep, and confirming deletion. The README also documents CLI mode with `mac-cleanup --select`, `mac-cleanup --clean --dry-run`, and `mac-cleanup --clean`.
The tool sends most deleted items to Trash by default, while the Trash category itself is permanent. The README says Full Disk Access may be needed for Trash or restricted locations.
Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren
For package-manager users, mac-cleanup-go is notable because Homebrew is both an installation channel and a cleanup target. It reflects a newer generation of macOS maintenance tools that wrap package caches, build caches, and app-specific paths in a TUI instead of relying on one-shot shell scripts.
