When I install watchman using brew install watchman, it got this Error: You must brew link pcre before watchman can be installed. So I try brew link pcre and brew link --overwrite pcre, I just got
linking /usr/local/Cellar/pcre/8.36...
Error: Could not symlink share/man/man3/pcre.3
/usr/local/share/man/man3 is not writable.
Can anyone help?

By design Homebrew (brew) requires the contents of /usr/local to be owned by you. You can fix it easily by running:
sudo chown -R `whoami` /usr/local
from your Terminal.

first
sudo chown -R 'your name' /usr/local
then
brew link pcre -f
then
brew install watchman
it should work
