Xcode download 12.46/14/2023 ![]() ![]() When I have time I will try to set up a proxy to identify what it downloads, but that has to wait. This will make sense at some point in my Mac journey, but for the start I only wanted git-cli which should be no more than 50 MB, at least that would be close to what Ubuntu does including direct dependencies. So you download old software to then download newer software and 3 different releases. ![]() ![]() Looking further, now "Software Update" from the control panel tells me that there are updates available for Command Line Tools for Xcode 13.2, 13.3 and 13.4. The device is an M1 powered MBP late 2021 with macOS 12.4. Xcode-select version ~ % du -hs /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/ΔΆ.1G /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/ Git version 2.30.1 (Apple ~ % xcode-select ~ % xcode-select -version Choose an option in the dialog to download the command line developer ~ % git -version ![]() Xcode-select: note: no developer tools were found at '/Applications/Xcode.app', requesting install. When I log into the developer portal I can see downloads which are not more than 700 MB in size like Command Line Tools for Xcode 13.4. So for version 2395 we have 2.84 GB of data. The SSL/TLS connection which downloaded 189 MB was the Visual Studio Code download which instructed me to install the developer tools. You won't trust me if I'm not going to post a screenshot, so here it is: I acknowledge that it may be sufficient for Mac users at home to just tell them how long it will take, while game launchers show all kinds of statistics about downloads, but for developers. I have a Unify Dream Machine Pro, so I at least have some insight how much traffic it generated even if an installer for some reason does not want to tell you. I recently got a Mac, my motivation-coming from Linux-was to find out why Linux projects from developers working on Macs I came across ended up being the maintenance burden for me and my team that they were. ![]()
