Brew: In macOS 10.12 Sierra, /usr/local is readonly.

Created on 21 Jun 2016  路  2Comments  路  Source: Homebrew/brew

I ran sudo chown -R $(whoami) $(brew --prefix)

But it also prompt me:

Error: /usr/local must be writable!

I think that macOS 10.12 rootless is also in /usr/local
What should I do?
