Tarsnap GUI has been rolled into the homebrew-gui repo and is honored to be the first app in this new GUI only repo. :-)

https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-gui

It is available under homebrew/gui/tarsnap-gui. Upon installing(https://brew.sh) or updating Homebrew to latest, fetching Tarsnap GUI on OS X becomes as simple as:

$brew install tarsnap-gui

The same as any other Homebrew package.

Cheers,
Shinnok
