Had to increase the deployment target from 10.10 (Yosemite, 2014) to 10.11 (El Capitan) as URL(fileURLWithPath: String, relativeTo: URL) is only available from 10.11.

guard var plistDictionary = (try? PropertyListSerialization.propertyList(from: data, options: [], format: nil)) as? [String: AnyObject] else {
fatalError("Failed to load plist from: \(url.absoluteString)")
}

I am not sure if this deserves a special key name style - perhaps it could be simply called basePlistFile.

Please call this newValue for clarity.

If we're bumping the minimum macOS version, then I think it needs to be mentioned in the CHANGELOG as well.

let inheritKey = ":inherit_from"
if let inheritPath = plistDictionary.removeValue(forKey: inheritKey) {
guard let inheritPath = inheritPath as? String, !inheritPath.isEmpty else {
fatalError("Expected \"\(inheritKey)\" in \(url.absoluteString) to be a string path")

The failure message should also mention that the path must be non-empty (since you're checking for it above):

Suggested change
fatalError("Expected \"\(inheritKey)\" in \(url.absoluteString) to be a string path")
fatalError("Expected \"\(inheritKey)\" in \(url.absoluteString) to be a non-empty String path")
