If @amirsaam's instructions do not work, please remove command line tools and update it with these two commands:

sudo rm -rf /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools
xcode-select --install```

Btw, this can caused by CLT being updated, and it will not get update from xcode-select --install, you need to update it from Mac's System Preferences

Go to Mac preferences > software updates and update xclt.

After that, open Xcode and accept Apple ToS (pops up when you open Xcode after update or install, a window that has an "agree" button.

Oh yeah, I forgot that that was the way to update command line tools.
