 === How do I upgrade my Xcode install? === #upgradexcode
 
 Some ports need newer versions of Xcode than that which ships with the OS, and will fail to install due to that requirement.  Xcode is not updated via Software Update, you have to download it manually.  To do so, go to http://connect.apple.com/ and log in with your ADC information (the free online account is enough to get access to Xcode).  Once you log in, go to ''Downloads'', then select ''Developer Tools'' on the right section under ''Downloads''.  You can then search for Xcode (there are quite a few versions available, make sure to get the latest for you OS version).
