At what QGIS release can OSX 10.15 be the minimum supported version? #155

OSX 10.15 is where C++17 std::filesystem is reliably available. We have some monkey patches in Untwine (which is used to process point cloud data) to support older OSX, but these don't behave consistently with <filesystem>. I would really like to ditch it all, but to do so would require increasing this minimum floor.

OSX 10.15 was released Oct 7th, 2019. It is three years old. 10.15 is compatible with OSX hardware up to 10 years old. It is zero-cost to download and install.

At which version can we bump this?
