I'm trying to install php72 using brew.
Actually when I do brew install php72 it's downloading "https://homebrew.bintray.com/bottles/php-7.3.0.mojave.bottle.tar.gz".
So when I check php version it's showing me PHP 7.3.0 (cli).
How can I install exactly php72 and not php73 ?
I found the solution.
Instead of installing php72 you must specify version like this php@7.2.
brew unlink [your actual php version linked]
brew install php@7.2
brew link php@7.2
Installing PHP 7.2 on Mac using Homebrew
Check version
php -v
check brew is up to date
brew update
brew upgrade
Unlink php version which is installed in the system
brew unlink php71
Now final step to download**
brew install php72
export PATH=/usr/local/php5/bin:$PATH
This worked for me
brew upgrade
brew unlink php71
brew install php72
then in your ~/.bash_profile
export PATH=/usr/local/Cellar/php\@7.2/7.2.26/bin/:$PATH
brew tap homebrew/homebrew-php
brew unlink php71
brew install php72 --with-argon2
brew install php72-xdebug

Note older version's of Mac OS are not supported, I'm trying with docker which also doesn't support older versions of Mac OS completely (no desktop version). Trying with just docker machine as follows;
base=https://github.com/docker/machine/releases/download/v0.16.0 &&
curl -L $base/docker-machine-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m) >/usr/local/bin/docker-machine &&
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-machine
