El_Capitan_and_Homebrew: remove document
We haven't seen this for a fair while since Apple pushed further updates to the SIP mechanism and believe it to be far less of an issue than it was previously. If you encounter further failure, please file an Issue and we'll be happy to help! At the moment though this advice is making people think there _will_ be an issue at some point, which isn't generally proving the case.

Wow - I just upgraded to El Capitan from Yosemite and encountered the /usr/local permissions problem straight off the bat. I think the chown advice would be helpful, at least, since /usr/local after upgrading is set to root:wheel, not $(whoami):admin.

You may still see this, but you should be able to solve it with the "standard":
sudo chown -R $(whoami):admin /usr/local
Which I believe our
brew doctor
will advise. However, it should no longer be required to disable SIP to achieve that, which was the point of this document.dd1625a

Yeah, the standard chown worked. I think it might be a good idea to ask users to run
brew doctor
if they have a permissions error - I certainly forgot about it.
