Homebrew: How to Backup & Restore Homebrew Packages

Homebrew makes it easy to install and keep installed software up to date on your Mac - as part of my backup routine for my Mac I want to be able to run a single command to reinstall all packages.

If you're searching on how to backup & restore Homebrew, then I assume you're here for the commands.

	# Generate a new pgp key: (better to use gpg2 instead of gpg in all below commands)
	gpg --gen-key
	# maybe you need some random work in your OS to generate a key. so run this command: `find ./* /home/username -type d \| xargs grep some_random_string > /dev/null`

	# check current keys:
	gpg --list-secret-keys --keyid-format LONG

	# See your gpg public key:
	gpg --armor --export YOUR_KEY_ID
	# YOUR_KEY_ID is the hash in front of `sec` in previous command. (for example sec 4096R/234FAA343232333 => key id is: 234FAA343232333)
