These tools were originally necessary for some of the Homebrew
applications to install successfully (especially Elasticsearch) but
those requirements are no longer necessary. This also reduces the setup
friction by requiring less manual work on behalf of the installer.
- Oracle makes it difficult to download the Java SE Development Kit as
an offline download because the license must be accepted first. The
JDK is important to have installed as several Homebrew apps require
it to exist first.
- This provides a prompt for checking that the Java SE Development Kit
has been installed before proceeding as the original way of
installing it assumed you had visited the Oracle web site and
accepted the license.
- Improves loading of the correct Bash environment/version, especially
on systems that might not be using a standard install (i.e.
Homebrew), by loading a version of Bash as defined by the environment
rather than a hard coded path.

- This is a copy of the [OSX](https://github.com/bkuhlmann/osx) project
originally released on 2012-03-31. The OSX project has been
deprecated. All future development and support will take place with
this project instead.
- This project uses the *macOS* name in order to better match the
updated branding and terminology used by Apple.
