    Feature request description

    On Macs, it would be nice to be able to install and run sourcegraph like this:

    brew install sourcegraph
    brew services start sourcegraph

    Is your feature request related to a problem? If so, please describe.

    The current way of doing this requires a special incantation involving docker run that no one is likely to guess. The user would have to run it again in the event of a reboot.

    Adding sourcegraph to brew would make it easier for potential users with Macs to try out sourcegraph locally. Some people might also discover sourcegraph by serendipity this way.

    Describe alternatives you've considered.

    The typical way to do it on a Mac would be something like this:

    brew cask install docker
    docker run --publish 7080:7080 --publish 2633:2633 --rm --volume ~/.sourcegraph/config:/etc/sourcegraph --volume ~/.sourcegraph/data:/var/opt/sourcegraph sourcegraph/server:3.1.2
