Is it still working on macOS version 14.4 ?

[JackLau1222]

I installed it with Brew, but I can't get it to work well. there are two method i tried to use proxychains

1. modify /opt/homebrew/etc/proxychains.conf last line to socks5 127.0.0.1 7890
2. use PROXYCHAINS_SOCKS5_HOST and PROXYCHAINS_SOCKS5_PORT like PROXYCHAINS_SOCKS5_HOST=127.0.0.1 PROXYCHAINS_SOCKS5_PORT=7890 proxychains4 ping google.com

the program found proxychains.conf and preload libproxychains4.dylib successfully but there are no any chains this is entire log:

sry, i test this command in my another mac(always run proxychains successfully, OS version 14.1), proxychains seems not support ping command. but this iMac still can't support git, i even use same conf with another mac

Normal situation maybe like that

i found the reason, the apple git is not support proxy, the proxychains work after i installed git manually

line 7 of README:

It supports TCP only (no UDP/ICMP etc).

so ping will never work.

line 252 of README:

• Mac OS X 10.11 (El Capitan) ships with a new security feature called SIP ... or to copy the system binary into the home directory and run it from there. see github issue #78 for details.
