# create a lock using `flock(2)`. A name is required as first argument.
# the lock will be automatically unlocked when the shell process quits.
# Noted due to the fixed FD, a shell process can only create one lock.
lock() {
local name="$1"
local lock_file="/tmp/homebrew${HOMEBREW_REPOSITORY//\//-}-${name}.lock"
# 200 is the file descriptor used in the lock.
# This FD should be used exclusively for lock purpose.
# Any value except 0(stdin), 1(stdout) and 2(stderr) can do the job.
# Noted, FD is unique per process but it will be shared to subprocess.
# It is recommended to choose a large number to avoid conflicting with
# other FD opened by the script.
#
# close FD first, this is required if parent process holds a different lock.
exec 200>&-
# open the lock file to FD, so the shell process can hold the lock.
exec 200>"$lock_file"

Another active Homebrew process is already in progress.
Please wait for it to finish or terminate it to continue.
