Xcode 12.2

Hello, I have some doubts:
  1. Xcode 12.2 runs in MacOs Catalina?

  2. Can I have both Xcode 12.1 and Xcode 12.2 installed in the same Mac?

  3. If question 2 answer is yes, how I install Xcode 12.2 without affecting 12.1 installation?

  4. If question 2 answer is yes, can I open a project in both versions of Xcode?

  5. If question 4 answer is yes, to open a project in both version I have to make a copy of the project?, what happen with the pods that the project have?, and what I have to make that the copied project runs well?

Thank you for your help.
  • Xcode 12.2 runs in MacOs Catalina?

Yes
  • Can I have both Xcode 12.1 and Xcode 12.2 installed in the same Mac?

Yes
  • If question 2 answer is yes, how I install Xcode 12.2 without affecting 12.1 installation?

just rename the first as Xcode 12.1 and download the new Xcode 12.2 (don't update)
  • If question 2 answer is yes, can I open a project in both versions of Xcode?

Yes, but avoid doing it at the same time.
Take care to be sure you understand which project you are working with…

I'd better do so.

I'm running the just-released Xcode 12.2 (12B45b) on macOS 10.15.7. When I open an existing Mac project ( just a standard AppKit, Foundation app, nothing extra - Objective-C with nib ) it does NOT offer "Any Mac ( Apple Silicon, Intel)". Instead it offers "Any Mac (Intel)".

Curiously, if I start a new Mac project it offers the Apple Silicon option and builds a universal app.
I'm using Architecture ( in Build Settings ) of "Standard Architectures" and Base SDK set to "macOS" ( which is the only option show ).

Any ideas what could be wrong?
Thanks, Brian
Xcode 12.2
