[webkit-dev] What's the current Safari UA?

Hi,

Relevant to [1], could someone please check what Safari's current UA 
string is, please? This is important to help me make sure WebKitGTK 
fakes the Safari user agent as well as possible. In particular, I'd 
like to know the version numbers used in the UA. I had thought we were 
frozen on:

Version/11.0 Safari/605.1.15

forever, but perhaps the Version/ component is not frozen and we're up 
to Version/12.0 or Version/12.1 now? I hope the 605.1.15, at least, is 
still frozen.

Also, for those naughty websites that require we use some serious 
fakery and pretend to be macOS, we currently use the string "Macintosh; 
Intel Mac OS X 10_13_4". I understand that Apple's previous attempt to 
freeze that value was not successful, so we still need to update this 
from time to time. What does it look like on, say, Mojave or Catalina?

Thanks,

Michael
