I can't find anything specific for Mac, as it's really a nix thing, but see https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/199160/what-are-serverauth-files-in-my-home-directory or https://superuser.com/questions/699838/xquartz-will-not-start-on-mac-10-9-maverick-infinite-failure-loop – Tetsujin Aug 29 '19 at 14:14
