Xcode 10 Build Requirement in Node Version 13.1.0

[debohman]

• Node.js Version: 13.1.0
• OS: macOS 10.12.6
• Scope (install, code, runtime, meta, other?): build

I noticed the new requirement for Xcode or the command line tools >= 10 to build Node 13.1.0.

I was wondering what the actual issue was? Is a newer compiler needed? It would be helpful to understand this issue.

Closing.

The issue was that V8 was starting to use things that required the later Xcode (nodejs/node#29493 (comment)).

Moved over to nodejs/node#30500.
