Description

I see that the Intel Mac runners are being deprecated, and the process will start on Sept 1st 2025 (so Apologies if I have jumped the gun on this). In the process of updating my workflows, I came to this repo find out what other MacOs options I have. I figured adding the deprecation badge that to the macOS 13 and macOS 13 Arm64 runners would be helpful to others.

We have put this matter with macos-13 deprecation on hold for a number of reasons. Let your PR hang around here for now - we'll merge when the time comes.

If the intention is not to deprecate yet, then is it a problem that the github-actions bot has stopped creating image update PRs for macOS 13?

If the intention is not to deprecate yet, then is it a problem that the github-actions bot has stopped creating image update PRs for macOS 13?

The bot is semi-automated and updates only documentation. The release decision is made by staff on a case-by-case basis. There will be no new macOS 13 release this week for a number of reasons:

  • no significant changes;
  • issues with Homebrew packages;
  • priority is given to updating macOS 14, macOS 15, and macOS 26, as they contain important features and fixes, unlike macOS 13.
