6/9/2023 0 Comments Update xcode command lineWait until Apple posts the upload on /downloads and then update from there.Never update Xcode from the Mac App Store.I spent roughly 8 hours all told downloading, installing, and updating Xcode, much of which could have been bypassed by following two simple rules: I couldn’t use Xcode during this time to get any work done. I even cleaned up the whole install process, tossed my mangled 7.2.1, restored a copy from Time Machine (not a quick process), and tried to update again from the store. I ended up with a partial install that thought it was done, that installed all the “extra” components on launch, and then turned out to be a 7.2.1 install that was convinced it was 7.3. I had to clear out my app store caches, restart my app store daemons, and reboot my computer several times. Yesterday was remarkably instructive when it comes to how badly App Store can completely mess up a download: particularly for a popular app like Xcode that’s being requested by gazoodles of people at once.
