Which one is it? When I update from Webkit Nightly's built in update tool it breaks the browser. Says not supported or something like that.

Right now I am on r189206. What version is the latest that works with Mavericks?

Thanks

The latest public build of Safari for OS X Mavericks, Safari 9.1, is powered by a newer version of WebKit than found in the last public WebKit nightly build that supports OS X Mavericks.

Therefore, your best bet is to simply use Safari 9.1.

Or you can download Safari 9.1.1 beta 1 for Mavericks at:
Safari_9.1.1_for_OS_X_Mavericks_beta_1.dmg

So Apple likes to hide their stuff and I found the correct download at https://developer.apple.com/downloads/.
This is where they have put all their software.

WebKit r192179 was built on 10 November 2015 and is compatible with OS X 10.9.5.

To find the latest version that will run on Mavericks, you can methodically work 'up' through the list at https://nightly.webkit.org/builds/trunk/mac/all beginning with
r192199 until you find one that will not run, then step back down until you find one that will.

r192684 is the last version of WebKit nightly that natively runs on 10.9.5 https://builds-nightly.webkit.org/files/trunk/mac/WebKit-SVN-r192684.dmg after testing many 1926xx through 1927xx builds.
