And if you know Git at all, you'll probably want to make your custom edit in its own branch. The formulas are all in /usr/local/Library/Formula, which is in a Git repository rooted at /usr/local. Unfortunately Homebrew doesn't look at different branches when installing formulas, so in order to install your custom formula in this case you need to go to the repo, change to your branch, run git install vim (or whatever formula), and then change back to master. That's what was recommended to me, anyway.
