Thanks for the feedback, right now there is no global way to set this. However, I just created a GitHub issue for it https://github.com/appget/appget/issues/14

In the meantime, what you can do as a workaround, is to use `-i` param when installing apps to launch the installer in interactive mode. That will let you run through the installer and customize everything including the install location. I know it's not ideal, but if you want to use appget to automatically download, validate the installers and check for outdated apps, it might be a reasonable work-around.

Still a good enough workaround to leverage the benefits of the trusted repository. Thanks for the tip! Definitely interested in seeing #14 get addressed :)
