PHP Monitor 25 will use a new numbering scheme, following the format:
25.06 = 25 . 06 . 0
M m p
(Minor, minor and patch.)
So what was supposed to be PHP Monitor 7.3 will now be version 25, with
the minor version number decided by the release month.
The cut-off date for PHP Monitor 7.2 is currently 2025-11-30, so I have
time but I'd prefer to have two releases out this year:
- One release migrating to the new numbering scheme
- One release with full support for macOS 26
Since I plan on only doing maintenance releases with no patches except
when bugs pop up, the major/minor version notation combination should
suffice.
With this release, the minimum supported version of macOS will become
macOS Ventura 13.5.
That means that support is dropped for Monterey and Ventura's older
builds. Since Homebrew is also changing with built-in service management
I think it's time to drop support for these older versions of macOS,
which I no longer intend to test for.
Older versions of PHP Monitor will, of course, remain functional, but
since Homebrew is an ever-changing thing, I cannot guarantee nothing
will break in those older versions with the newer API.
This commit ensures that PHP Monitor knows about which versions of
PHP are supported by the upcoming Valet 4.0: PHP 7.1 and higher.
Ensures compatibility with https://github.com/laravel/valet/pull/1318
