Then run Mac in a VM on Linux. IntelliJ, Git, and music-listening developr here. On GNU/Linux. It does not make sense because you stop yourself from knowin the inner workings of what you are targeting in your development efforts - eat your own poison so to say - CentOS - run CentOS. How hard can that be?

2. Permitted License Uses and Restrictions. A. This License allows you to install and use one copy of the Apple Software on a single Apple-labeled computer at a time. This License does not allow the Apple Software to exist on more than one computer at a time,and you may not make the Apple Software available over a network where it could be used by multiple computers at the same time. You may make one copy of the Apple Software (excluding the Boot ROM code) in machine-readable form for backup purposes only; provided that the backup copy must include all copyright or other proprietary notices contained on the original.
