I've created two custom field groups in a temporary wordpress install and would now like to use the export of them to import them into a new wordpress install, however it doesn't seem like there's a way.
How have others done this?

To export Advanced Custom Fields, go to WP All Export › New Export and select the post type or custom post type attached to your ACF fields. Set up the export using drag & drop, then process the export and proceed to download the export file.
To export WordPress custom fields to CSV/XML go to WP All Export › New Export and select the post type you'd like to export. WP All Export will automatically detect the custom fields from your posts. Drag and drop to select fields to export, arrange the spreadsheet columns, and more.
WordPress automatically adds all the required metadata to each post or page you create. You can also create and store your own metadata by using the custom fields. By default, the custom fields option is hidden on the post edit screen.
Advanced Custom Fields stores the field groups as Custom Post Types, so the XML export is compatible with the standard WordPress XML format, and can be imported using the WordPress Importer plugin.
You can also get to the install directly by visiting /wp-admin/import.php on your site (under Admin > Tools > Import) and clicking the WordPress link at the bottom. Once installed you just need to import the XML export file you created for the ACF field groups.
