Is .ruby-version still needed?
The file .ruby-version is mentioned in MACOS.md in relation to rbenv.
However the contents are 2.4.1, having previously been 2.5.5.
Both seem seriously out of date, so it looks like the file is not needed.

I don’t know enough about different versions of ruby to recommend which one to use. Whatever version we use in production would make sense here.

You could just add a statement the file is outdated and should be updated once a macOS / Whimsy user cares to do so.

The file then does not make sense, as it says:
"To use this globally when invoked through rbenv shims,
you can use `rbenv global $VERSION` to set that where
`$VERSION` is the version in `/srv/whimsy/.ruby-version`."
Anyone reading that will wonder where the file is.

Agreed, but I think the docs still need adjusting

Recommendation: delete the file, add .ruby-version to .git-ignore, and
leave MACOS.md alone.
Those that need it in the future, can create it, but there is no need
to commit such files at this time.

OK I can delete the file, but what changes are needed to MACOS.md?

I probably added those at one point when I had a bunch of ruby versions installed. I don’t think it’s needed anymore.
