Description
Why does React Native put downloaded source code archives (e.g. Boost, glog) in ~/.rncache? I don't want to track down the temporary garbage created by react-native next time I need to make more free disk space.
Please put these files in ~/Library/Caches or /tmp (or some other appropriate directory) on macOS.
Reproducible Demo
Just run react-native init ProjectName and build the iOS app.
