| By default, when extracts the Xcode.zip, | |
| macos will create tmp file in `/private/var/folders/v2/tbmrn60d2910x3w23ys5fgs00000gn/T/com.apple.AUHelperService`. | |
| Sometimes, the /private has no ehough space to hold 19GB Xcode.app. | |
| Thus we can create a soft link named `com.apple.AUHelperService` in the tmp dir. | |
| Steps: | |
| 1. BACKUP `com.apple.AUHelperService` in `/private/var/folders/v2/tbmrn60d2910x3w23ys5fgs00000gn/T/` to `com.apple.AUHelperService_BACKUP` | |
| 2. mkdir named `com.apple.AUHelperService` wherever you have enough space, | |
| 3. ln -s /your/absolute/path/com.apple.AUHelperService /private/var/folders/v2/tbmrn60d2910x3w23ys5fgs00000gn/T | |
| 4. double click the Xcode.xip |
