Change PHP version requirement to >=7.1

[iquito]

In the README the PHP version is stated as >=7.1, but in composer.json it is actually ^7.1. Changing it to >=7.1 would make it possible to start using it in PHP8. The same goes for captainhook/captainhook by the way, where the version constraint is ^7.2.

Before the release of PHP8, many projects (like Symfony) have changed their PHP version requirements away from specific major versions to only specifying a minimum version, which makes more sense for the PHP constraint because you don't really want to prevent people from trying it in new PHP versions, and if there is a problem the early adopters (like me) will not be surprised anyway and report it, so it can be fixed.

Thanks for reporting the issue.

The problem is fixed for captainhook itself and for the plugin-composer package

Thanks! Now the version constraints of the helper packages still have PHP7 only version constraints:

• sebastianfeldmann/camino
• sebastianfeldmann/cli
• sebastianfeldmann/git

I think if you release a new version of those with a relaxed version constraint it should work.

Fixed ;)

Thanks! :-)
