Brewer 1.0.3

Follow-up fix: Mac App Store upgrades now actually work.

Website: https://monzdigital.github.io/brewer/

What's fixed

• App Store (mas) upgrades run with the native password dialog.
  mas 7 requires root for install/upgrade (App Store apps are owned by
  root) and re-executes itself through a hardcoded /usr/bin/sudo - which
  cannot prompt without a terminal and ignores askpass helpers unless
  invoked with -A. Brewer now elevates mas itself with sudo -A, so the
  standard macOS administrator-password dialog appears and the upgrade
  proceeds. mas is designed for this and restores your user context via
  SUDO_UID/SUDO_GID. (1.0.2's environment-only approach was not enough;
  this one is verified against how the mas binary actually calls sudo.)
• Per-app "Queued" states on App Store rows while their upgrade is in line.

As always: the password goes from Apple's dialog straight to sudo - Brewer
never sees or stores it, and Cancel aborts cleanly.
