Same here as well. Anyone got any solution so far on this?
Same here for XCode 13.
I copied to a the external drive and ran :
time xip -x Xcode_13_beta3.xip
After 24 minutes it spits out a bunch of errors:
54: Error: failed to write 8992 bytes to /var/folders/lf/khb1n07j4nvf8tgybttqs81m0000gn/T/C063E34F-1D18-446A-8E4F-34E3377C56A7//Xcode-beta.app/Contents/SharedFrameworks/GameToolsFoundation.framework/Versions/A/Resources/animateWithTexture_48.tiff(9) at 0: No space left on device
man xip says:
--expand <input-file> Expands the archive into the current working directory. This option cannot be used with any other arguments.
Oh really? /var/folders/ is not the current working directory.
I download Xcode_12.5.1.xip and extract it using xip. The extraction takes forever, so I take a look at the extracted files, and it grows over than 96GB from the original 11GB. So I stopped the extraction. Who knows how space will it consume after the full extraction.
(76GB is from folder Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator)

Why do Apple expect that we all have enough space to store the fat boy Xcode? Does anyone knows how to extract subset of files from a xip?
Here is a tip. First install it on your Mac's internal SSD and then directly move it to your external SSD. In this way, you'll have it installed on your external SSD, and would be a little more faster.
Same here too. Trying to install the current Xcode 13 beta . I am on Big Sur 11.6, first tried with double click ( it did not work ) and now through terminal. So far 2 hours and it is stuck on the very first line that is says: " xip: signing certificate was "Software Update" (validation not attempted)" I dont know what to make of it .... going to leave it like this for the night and check it in the morning. And yes, my hard drive has 1.2 TB free space so this not the reason. Any faster and working solution would be highly appreciated.
Any working solution so far?
Me also had same problem. While I'm writing this (answer) my unzip process just already finished, it takes about almost 3 hours. Almost cancel the process, thank god still have mood to wait. Huhhhh...
