Xcode 16 on Macos sequoia can't upload build: Copy Failed

Can't find any solution by googling. Uploading my react-native app build to appstore stops with error: Copy failed

In logs in file IDEDistributionPipeline.log I found this:

Answer

I found a fix on Hacker News Read more [enter link description here][1]

I recently ran into an issue with this because building an iOS .ipa from the command line with xcodebuild apparently ends up shelling out to call rsync to copy some files between local directories, and because I had homebrew rsync earlier in $PATH, it would end up running homebrew rsync, but xcodebuild passed an openrsync-only command line argument "--extended-attributes" that homebrew rsync doesn't understand and would exit with a failure.

I had the same thing, removed rsync from homebrew and uploading ipa was successful.
