See
https://github.com/mxcl/homebrew/wiki/The-brew-command
brew --prefix
Print path to Homebrew’s prefix (usually /usr/local)
brew edit [formula]
Open [formula] in $HOMEBREW_EDITOR or $EDITOR
You could also
open `brew --prefix`/Library/Formula
which will open the directory of formulas in a Finder window, and you can
edit your local copies any way you like.
If you learn a bit of `git` you can clone the repository, and contribute a
pull request with your URL fix. This is all written up various places, and
I got the help I needed from this list.

You need to `brew update`; the version of this is up to 3.03 in the
current version of Homebrew.
