The re-attempt that you triggered completed successfully.

The machine has 15 GB available usually. This is less than I would like but 
there isn't anything taking up unnecessary space. Xcode just continues its 
yearly quest to use up all disk space everywhere. I should probably have 
allocated a bit more disk space to this VM when I set it up but I didn't.
