Running CI on Mac OS X in Azure Pipelines is currently broken due to a moved homebrew package.
Updates in V2: Johannes helped to make the step even more robust.
Thanks, -Stolee

Error: caskroom/cask was moved. Tap homebrew/cask-cask instead.
- Preface the "brew install caskroom/cask/perforce" with the old
- way of installing perforce, and only try this method if the
- "brew install perforce" fails.
+ So let's try to call `brew cask install perforce` first (which is what
+ that error message suggests, in a most round-about way).
- The existing way to use caskroom was added in 672f51cb (travis-ci:
+ The "caskroom" way was added in 672f51cb (travis-ci:
fix Perforce install on macOS, 2017-01-22) and the justification
- is that the "brew install perforce" can fail due to a hash
- mis-match. The mismatch is due to the official Perforce distro
- updating the published binaries without updating the version
- string. CI servers are typically fresh virtual machines, so that
- issue should not arise in automated builds.
+ is that the call "brew cask install perforce" can fail due to a checksum
+ mismatch: the recipe simply downloads the official Perforce distro, and
+ whenever that is updated, the recipe needs to be updated, too.
- Even if a build server is re-used and hits the hash mis-match,
- it will fall back to the "new" mechanism which is currently
- failing, but may be fixed independently of this change.
+ CI servers are typically fresh virtual machines, but not always. To
+ accommodate for that, let's try harder if `brew cask install perforce`
+ fails, by specifically pulling the latest `master` of the
+ `homebrew-cask` repository.
+
+ This will still fail, of course, when `homebrew-cask` falls behind
+ Perforce's release schedule. But once it is updated, we can now simply
+ re-run the failed jobs and they will pick up that update.
+
+ As for updating `homebrew-cask`: the beginnings of automating this in
+ https://dev.azure.com/gitgitgadget/git/_build?definitionId=11&_a=summary
+ will be finished once the next Perforce upgrade comes around.
