Trying to to create a workflow for Xcode Cloud in Xcode. The issue I am having is that I am unable to complete the workflow creation, which i believe to be due to the following issue:
The primary repository path is going to some derived data path that is for a third party repository that we have integrated via SPM
when in the drop down selection, it is only showing SPM connected repositories.
Then in the final stage, I cant proceed to connect github, etc
if anyone has any ideas on how to proceed from here, that would be appreciated :) It's especially confusing because I am able to pull up the correct branches when editing triggers

I wrote a tiny application and checked it into GitHub. I then wanted to make it cross-platform, so instead of trying to build that out, I restarted with a new project and selected Multiplatform->Game. As part of this I made a new local repo, and once it was up and running, connected it to the remote.
Now the new project is very different than the old one. And so when I try to Push, it complains that "The local repository is out of date." I tried doing a Pull with Stash, and that happened without any errors, but I still get the same error when trying to push. A Refresh File Status indicates no changes.
Reading many (many!) threads here suggests that it should just work, you should be able to completely rebuild a remote just by pushing. So I suspect the issue is in Xcode? Any advice on how to get this code into the repo?
If you create a new repo and select a license, the resulting LICENCE file will always conflict with the local even if there are no differences. This is not indicated in the Xcode display, nor does github report any differences online or in the CLI.
So... if you are making a new repo, do not select a license if the project contains one.
On our iOS project we have a dependency which is being worked on by another vendor. They will host their code in a private repo and so far I can think of two options.
One, I have to end up manually copying them and set it up in our internal repo which can than be added as a dependency via SPM OR
Two, I have to create a GitHub token and share it with all the team members and ensure they add this account in Xcode to avoid the manual sync.
Both these options are not really great considering that on Android we have a grade script which can work seamlessly.
Is there any other better way to integrate privately hosted SPMs in Xcode ?
You can mirror it somewhere more public to your teammates.
I have one Project in SonarQube with some history and some Confirmed Issues and I need split this project, because of two versions of source code, but I need the history and Issue changes in both projects. How to do this? It is possible somehow clone, duplicate existing Project to another one with different name?
Cloning or duplicating a project is not supported.
You can use the Time machine functionality of SQ to "recreate" the past analyses of the project under another name but it won't recreate the history of changes on issues.
I'm currently starting to develop an ios app with some friends. We'd like to use a private github repository for version control so we can collaboratively work and push changes to the code. Xcode 5 creates a local git repository, but there seems to be some differences between using git for an iphone app versus the class projects (java projects like connect 4) that I've been used to.
I've created a repository on github, and pushed an initial commit from my local xcode project to the github repository. However, I'm not sure if others will be able to download the code and import it into an xcode project and have it work as intended.
For one, the files on github are organized differently than it displays from my workspace in xcode 5. From the project navigator, most of the yellow folders (folder references, which I don't fully understand) aren't actually folders, and don't appear on the github page. Also, many things (infoPlist.strings, frameworks) are represented in a humongous "project.pbxproj" file, along with confusing build information.
I know that this is a vague question, but I really had no idea what to look up or read. Let me know if there's any way I can improve asking questions on stack overflow. Also, if you know any guides that would help me out with this kind of stuff, I'm all ears.
Introduction
Git and Xcode work wonderfully together to create applications that foster teamwork and minimize versioning complications. However, it's important to understand the basics of Git before proceeding. This answer will walk you through the steps of integrating Git with Xcode, which really isn't too complicated once you understand what's going on.
The difference between Git and GitHub
(The OP might know this distinction, but this is really for anyone else who visits this page and is confused)
The first thing to understand is that Git and GitHub are two completely different things. Git is a version control system, like Subversion (SVN), or PerForce. It can be used independently of GitHub. GitHub is a cloud repository storage system that is integrated with Git. That's why it's called GitHUB; it's a HUB for your code and all it's versions/commits. Git can work with many repository storages, one of them being BitBucket. (This is unlike Subversion, which doesn't have a local repository and a remote repository; you have to push changes from your local repository to your remote repository in Git).
The question asked how to integrated GitHub with Xcode - the evil answer to that is you do not; you integrate Git with Xcode (which Apple has already pretty much done for you). When you commit something in Git locally, you push to GitHub, where your code is stored, and where others (e.g. team members or the public, depending on your privacy settings) can clone or fork your repository and build on it.
Create a remote repository
Let's assume you're starting from scratch. If you're not starting from scratch and already have code in a remote repository, skip this step.
In this step, you want to create your repository on GitHub or BitBucket. Follow the instructions that these sites give you to create the repository.
Getting the URL to Clone the repository
Whether you're using GitHub or BitBucket, you have to be able to tell Xcode where you are storing your code. Find the URI that allows you to clone the repository; GitHub and Bitbucket should have easy steps for finding these. Usually look for the word "clone" on the main screen of your repository, and you'll find it.
Clone locally
Fire up Xcode, with a new project. Hit the "Source Control" menu bar item, and select "Checkout". In the popup where it says "Or enter a repository or location", copy the clone URI that you acquired in your previous step. Then hit next. When asked to clone, Xcode will prompt for a branch; pick which one you want for now. If you have no idea what branching is, then choose "master".
Conclusion
Now you're all set. From now on, most things you need will be under the "Source Control" menu bar items as well; this includes committing, pushing and pulling. Enjoy, and good luck!
Setup the Xcode project as shown here.
Once, done you can see which file’s have been added,modified etc in project navigator.

We're trying to set up github version control for a Jsp-project in NetBeans 7.0.1. The problem is we don't have a clue what to do. I Have set up a public account on github and done all the steps in the install guide on github, ssh keys and everything. So if I wanted to work on my own in this project I wouldn't have a problem.
The problem is how to get my collaborator started. He has an account on github. he set it up with ssh keys and such. In the admin view on github I added him as a collaborator, but we don't know the next step.
So the question is how to connect the collaborator to the project? something like this I suppose?
git remote add origin git#github.com:username/Hello-World.git
git pull
(another question: Do I git only the source files or the whole project folder?)
Regarding your second question... That's a tough one.
A few months ago I was working with a colleague on a JavaEE project and we initially decided to share the whole Eclipse project. Since I was working on Windows and he was working on Linux, we had much trouble maintaining everything. Also we had to make sure that we don't accidentally push up our .project dir, because that would overwrite the settings on the other persons machine, messing up the whole project. So we ended up removing all the project files from the repository and just keeping the source folders (src and WebContent).
Both of us set up an empty project, made our settings and than imported the source code from the repository. Was some trouble setting it up until everybody had the same project settings, but afterwards it worked like a charm.
For just two developers that is fine, I guess for a bigger team, there might be better solutions.
So, I guess Netbeans handles the project settings in a similar way. So in my opinion you should just share the code.
For the first access, what your collaborator should be able to do is a git clone of your repository.
That will set for him the remote address.
If he is declared as a collaborator, he then should be able to push/pull to that remote repo.
Note that your collaborator should have received a push notification access.
