Let’s be honest: Downloading Xcode directly from Apple’s servers can feel like watching paint dry.
Pro tip: Use rsync or curl -C - to avoid re-downloading if the connection drops. That command only downloads the Command Line Tools (~500 MB), not the full Xcode (~12 GB). If you just need git , clang , or swiftc , use that—it’s much faster and has no mirror issues. The Future: Xcode via Homebrew? There’s no official brew install xcode , but you can use:
# On one Mac that already has Xcode downloaded cd ~/Downloads python3 -m http.server 8000 wget http://<first-mac-ip>:8000/Xcode_15.xip
