This updates the macOS runner from version 13 to version 15, because the former is being retired: https://github.blog/changelog/2025-09-19-github-actions-macos-13-runner-image-is-closing-down/ We're switching to the "-intel" variant because I think it makes sense to build for x86_64 for as long as we can, even though Apple is also retiring the architecture.
It's already pre-installed.
This is a leftover of commit bfb0827.
Ninja builds are always run in parallel, based by default on the number of CPUs the system has.

@guihkx thanks! Works on ARM macOS. My Intel MacBook got its batteries swelled up so I'm afraid of using it haha. |
GitHub had removed Inno Setup from the Windows Server 2025 image, but now they've recently reintroduced it: https://redirect.github.com/actions/runner-images/issues/12947#issuecomment-3416540769 This new image with Inno Setup pre-installed is not generally available yet, so we still need to keep the "Install latest Inno Setup" CI step around, because our Windows CI runner might be randomly assigned an older version of the Windows 2025 image, where Inno Setup doesn't come pre-installed. To prevent that step from randomly failing, however, we now check if Inno Setup is already installed before invoking "winget install".

Hahah, no problem. Thanks for testing on ARM, though. I managed to test it on an virtualized macOS 11 on x86-64, and it also works:

The macOS 13 runner is getting removed by GitHub in December 4th, 2025:

I decided to go with the
-intelvariant of macOS 15, because I think it makes sense to build for x86_64 for as long as we can, even though Apple is also retiring the architecture.While I don't have a Mac to actually test the resulting binary, I've extracted the
Notesbinary from the DMG image on Linux and ran thefilecommand on it, which looks okay:Still, it'd be great if @nuttyartist could test the resulting binary on both x86_64 and ARM64 Macs (if possible).
Thanks!
