I've upgraded to an M1 Macbook Pro and need to reinstall all of the goodies that I use regularly.

This includes Homebrew.

I have been to the official Homebrew site and done what they suggest:

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"

It then suggests to run

echo '# Set PATH, MANPATH, etc., for Homebrew.' >> /Users/username/.bash_profile echo 'eval "$(/opt/homebrew/bin/brew shellenv)"' >> /Users/username/.bash_profile eval "$(/opt/homebrew/bin/brew shellenv)"

To keep it within the path for future use - I would think this was the thing that keeps it being reusable when you restart/get a new Terminal

And this works great. I can then use brew install xxx after installation to install whatever packages I require.

The issue comes when I get a new Terminal or restart etc. I go to perform another brew install and I get the annoying

-bash: brew: command not found

Is there something that I've not done after the initial install that means my Mac doesn't remember it's installed brew?

I was running into the same issue as you. My issue was my terminal was set to bash instead of zsh by default. I had to run chsh -s /bin/zsh and followed the top answer on another post, which is similar if not identical to the steps you include in your question. I restarted my terminal and ran through brew help worked!
