Since v0.5 requires macOS 14

peterjc commented 3 weeks ago

This is based on trying the recent releases, see #1649

Description

Update minimum version of macOS in the README file requirements section.

Motivation and Context

Avoids false hope in users with older Apple Mac that they can run the latest release.

How Has This Been Tested?

Tested recent releases under macOS 12.7.6 "Monterey" to determine the minimum version of macOS reported as required, see #1649.

I don't think we should say version numbers there because it will be a constant chase of updates when new OSes come out. Who sets the minimum OS version anyway? Even the change to not having Intel binaries happened because GitHub changed their CI, it was not directly a conscious decision by this project I think.

OK, then it would make sense to edit that point in the README to just say "macOS" and drop the version which currently is misleading (due to circumstances partly outside the project's control).
