Sometimes the command fails with a 'type: write error: Broken pipe'.
This is because 'head -1' only reads the first line, then exits.
If 'type' writes the second line after 'head -1' has already exited,
then the aforementioned error is triggered.
We fix this by buffering the entire output of 'type' before
invoking 'head -1'.
It wasn't clear how to update the list of installable Ruby versions after installing rbenv from Git. This is a bit confusing for people who use rbenv to run third party Ruby apps rather than write their own and are less likely to know/care about the distinction between `rbenv` and `ruby-build`. I hadn't touched it for about 2 years and totally forgot that I'd need to manually update ruby-build.
Alternatively, it might be better to make ruby-build a git submodule.
A malicious `.ruby-version` file in the current directory could inject
`../../../` into the version string and trigger execution of binaries
outside of `RBENV_ROOT/versions/`.

This suppressed any output when using RBENV_DEBUG=1 and does not really
hurt to have in the unlikely case that it should fail; you would get
two error messages now:
rbenv: ruby: command not found
rbenv: system version not found in PATH
Command `rbenv version-name > .ruby-version` will create an empty `.ruby-version` file
before running `rbenv-version-file`. This causes `rbenv-version-file` to return empty
string which in turn causes `rbenv-version-name` to return `system`.
Ensure size of `.ruby-version` is non-zero as a workaround.
Shell integration is not enabled by default. This means that, from all the
commands from `rbenv commands`, only "shell" won't work right away.
Replace "no such command" with a more descriptive message that points to
`rbenv init` instead.
* Move Homebrew to the top, common case for new devs
* Note that `brew install rbenv` includes ruby-build by default
* Be clear that `rbenv init` instructions are needed for shell setup
* Be explicit about starting a new shell to pick up PATH/init changes
* Use rbenv-doctor to conclusively demonstrate correct setup
* Separate upgrade instructions for Homebrew vs Git installs
