Downloading and updating XcodeThe current release of Xcode is available as a free download from the Mac App Store. The Mac App Store will notify you when an update is available or you can have macOS update automatically as it becomes available.
Open the Mac App Store app. Search for “xcode” in the search field, at the top-left. Click on the Xcode app item that appears. Click on the Get or Install buttom at the top-right to download and install Xcode.
The normal way you upgrade Xcode via direct download is to download the new version, extract it from the XIP, and drag it into Applications. Are you having a problem with that? There is no patch-in-place; you just download the new version.
The always working and preferred workaround!
Download directly from Apple:
Then extract and move it where you like. This has so many benefits comparing to AppStore updates. (like the ability to resume download, not replacing the old one, not wasting hidden directories and etc.)
Note that you should use safari to download it.
Apple suggested this workaround but many developers (including me)prefer manual download to save a lot of network traffic!
Since This is Known Issues
Xcode may fail to update from the Mac App Store after updating to macOS Catalina. (56061273)
Apple suggest this:
To trigger a new download you can delete the existing
Xcode.appor temporarily change the file extension so it is no longer visible to the App Store.
