@mjtsai @jacobgorban Xcode 8 was the first time I saw it. The only difference is it is signed?

@ObjColumnist@jacobgorban Functionally, signing is the main difference with .zip. Technically, it’s a different format based on .xar.0 replies 0 retweets 0 likes -
@mjtsai@ObjColumnist But if the application inside the .zip is signed, why also sign the package it’s in (.xip)? I don’t see the value.0 replies 0 retweets 0 likes -

@mjtsai@jacobgorban@ObjColumnist Do you know if .xip files are subject to Gatekeeper Path Randomization?0 replies 0 retweets 0 likes -
@milend@jacobgorban@ObjColumnist My conclusion is that for Sierra if you don’t want to use .dmg you should probably use .xip.0 replies 0 retweets 2 likes -
@mjtsai@jacobgorban@ObjColumnist I believe xip is also backwards compatible a few releases, right?0 replies 0 retweets 0 likes -
@milend@jacobgorban@ObjColumnist Yes, I tested .xip back to 10.8.0 replies 0 retweets 1 like
@mjtsai @milend @jacobgorban I think 10.7 was the first release to support it, but I could be wrong.

@ObjColumnist@milend@jacobgorban Yes, I’m pretty sure it’s in 10.7, but my 10.7 test system wasn’t working.0 replies 0 retweets 1 like
