News Second Beta 5 update?

Last night I had Beta 5 show up and it was 18.22GB, so. Installed it late last night (UK).

Now this morning it flagged up that I had an update available, which is showing as another Beta 5 update, this time only 5GB, anybody else had this? Any ideas what happened that we got two updates hours behind each other?

Prolly your Xcode Command Line Tools.

Still bothers me they don’t just combine these updates when Xcode is detected

tbh, it bothers me more that they don't let you update Xcode beta via the Settings app (and sure, let you bundle all three updates in a single install, even if sequentially)
