Is there an option on TeTool Pro to release the purgeable disk space? (I could not find it.)
If not, would you consider adding it?
On a MacBook Pro with only 128 GB SSD I could not use App Store to update Xcode (~12 GB) even though I had about 36 GB available disk space, but over 18GB of it was "purgeable." Apparently, the installer cannot use the purgeable disk space and I have reported this to Apple as a bug. I could not find an option to free the "purgeable" and creating an empty large file would not do that. I was able to free the space with shell commands to fill 36GB file with random data, remove it, and then run the update to Xcode.
$ head -c 36000000000 < /dev/random > ~/Downloads/myfile
$ rm ~/Downloads/myfile
Also, do you have a description of how MacOS uses "purgeable" disk space?
