Please do not put configuration dotfiles directly into user home dir. XDG Base Dir Spec is more than a decade old, majority of cli apps use it, like Configuration files should be placed into |

the value debug is not in default_values

should a loop over the hash and a default_options[option_name] = default_values[option_name] a little shorter and include all options from hash?

i see there you also can write when you don't need to exclude some keys:
default_options = OpenStruct.new(default_values)
| unless File.exist?(config_filename) | ||
| odebug "Config file doesn't exist, creating" | ||
| create_default_config_file config_filename | ||
| end |

I don't expect here as an user that a normal brew cu creates always the config file.
if there is no config then do not create one.
only if there is an command brew cu --create-config I would expect that a config will be created.
my suggestion: remove this part and create an new command - or leave the creation of this to the user.

-
at this point i would filter the keys to only allow keys which are known
-
maybe show an error message when keys are unknown - for example if there is a typo

Description
In order to allow changing default configuration for user execution, the default config is stored in user home directory.
Any additional options passed to the command have preference.
