Install Command Line Developer Tools: can't install the software because it is not currently available from the software update server

I'm having a problem installing the Command Line Developer Tools with xcode-select --install using Xcode 11 beta and on Mac Mojave 10.14.5.

The download starts happening and then gets promptly stopped with a message stating:

Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the software update server.

I've looked this up and all the threads that I find all have dead links to download the command line tools:

Example 1

Example 2

Neither of these answers worked for me, I later found the solution was my installation was done improperly the first time. I ran these commands and got the command line working.

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

EDIT after some pcaping and other dumbness i finally poked around in the xcode gui-- go to Open Developer Tools > More Developer Tools it will launch a webpage behind the dev portal where you can dl the dmg

im guessing their repos are down. im getting the same. picked a bad day to try and installl gcc from brew

I was able to download the command line tools directly from the Downloads page on the Apple Developer site: https://developer.apple.com/download/more/?=command%20line%20tools

Note you'll need to login with an iCloud account to access it.
