Necessary to ensure the Homebrew directory remains clean and is *only* managed by Homebrew. All other programs are downloaded straight from the provider and placed in the `/usr/local/bin` instead.
Necessary to improve the install reliability of software and
associated libraries (extensions). There is now a split between core
installation of applications and associated libraries. This is a loose
split since everything in the *Install* category is mostly
applications but also contains related setup while the *Libraries*
category requires a machine reboot so the fully configured environment
is loaded to ensure all libraries install properly.
The specifics of these changes will be handled in the corresponding
macOS Configuration project.
Improves name consistency by using the same `install_` prefix for all
install scripts.
The dotfiles script was renamed as a shell script since this is now a
dedicated shell configuration script so people can configure their
default shell as they like. Use of this new shell script will be
configured in a future commit.
Necessary to reduce duplicated effort found in the macOS Configuration
project plus this allows people to customize their Ruby gem install
further in case they don't want this stipulation.
These are seldom used and native support via Homebrew, for example, is
better than what these scripts can do. This also reduces additional
maintenance burden on this project.
Ensures the latest version of Node is installed as managed by Fast
Node Manager (FNM). Behavior is similar to using Frum to manage Ruby
versions except FNM has the additional feature of computing latest
version instead.
Necessary to pick up latest version with new features, bug fixes, new
Data primitive, Web Assembly support, and much more.

Necessary to address the following security issue:
CVE-2021-33621: HTTP response splitting in CGI
This also fixes a build failure with Xcode 14 and macOS 13 (Ventura).
Necessary to pick up RuboCop 1.27.0 changes -- which, unfortunately,
introduces a warning bug -- and reduce duplicate configurations which
are enabled by RuboCop now.
Necessary due to it looking like
[SPDX](https://github.com/spdx/license-list-XML/issues/1393) might not
approve the 3.0.0 version. The 2.1.0 version will have to suffice as a
safe fallback which won't cause conflicts with downstream tooling.
Necessary to improve maintenance of project. Not much Ruby code is used
but having these checks in place -- even is only for gem dependencies
-- is nice.
Necessary to remove duplicated effort by the Alchemists build process.
This also reduces individual project maintenance since all of this can
be handled by the build process.
Necessary to clearly denote this is version-based release notes. These
will be further enhanced in the future. This is now consistent with
behavior provided by the Rubysmith and Gemsmith gems.
