this is driving me nuts. My SVN repo is working fine, I was able to checkout everything and view revisions in Xcode's organiser.
It is only when I go to commit the changes that i hit this ridiculous problem:
After a lot of research I found the only people getting this problem were those who didn't realise that there is a separate password for google code than your google account password. My password is correct.
Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks a lot
As it turns out, this is due to some bug in Xcode I think. What you have to do to get around it is:
Firstly set up your repository in Organiser
Open the project in Xcode and make a change
Try to commit this change in Xcode. You will get the error above
Now commit the change to your repository using the svn command in the terminal
Now make another change and commit it using Xcode. It will work

I am trying to figure out how to open an old version of my Xcode project that is stored in GitLab. Usually, I use Xcode to push updates to Gitlab and on the occasions, I've had to get my project from GitLab, I simply click the "Open in Xcode" button on GitLab, which brings my project up.
The problem that I'm having now is that I've accidentally introduced a bug into the project that crashes the app and I can't figure out how to crush this bug. The last couple of updates to GitLab contain this bug so I need to revert to a copy a bit in the past. When I click on this update, there is no open in Xcode button, and I'm unsure about how to open this previous version.
I'm hoping that there is a straightforward solution to getting this old version of this file up. I'm just getting started using git, and I'm hoping someone on here can provide some insight.
Can someone please point me in the right direction on the easiest way to revert to an old project update on GitLab?
It seems easier to:
close XCode
cd /path/to/local/clone/of/GitLab/repo
switch to the command line and type git switch <old SHA1> in order to update the working tree with the files content of that past SHA1
open XCode back up.
(Note: git switch is better than the old legacy git checkout command)
If you want to commit some fixes, your git switch command will be:
git switch -c fix <old SHA1>
That will start a fix branch starting from <old SHA1>.
I have XCode Server set up with XCode 6.4 and OSX Server 4.1.5. I had integrations running fine until I transferred my git repository to another bitbucket account. No big deal right? Wrong for me :(. After I transferred my repository, I changed my git remote, I changed the repository location in Preferences in Xcode on my dev computer as well as on my server. Regular git functions are working fine from the command line and from within XCode. Nothing seems wrong until I try to run an integration and then it gives me the following build service error:
Could not check out sources because the source control information is in an invalid format.
I tried deleting my bot and creating another one. I tried cloning my project straight from the new location into another folder in case something had gotten out of sync. I git reset hard to the remote branch just in case even though there was nothing different. I tried cleaning and restarting everything multiple times. I reset XCode Server too (sudo xcrun xcscontrol --reset) and am still getting the error making me think I really did somehow mess up my git repository as far as XCode is concerned, but I have no ideas about what XCode doesn't like about my source control information. Does anyone have any ideas for what I can do or try? I've been tearing my hair out for hours.
I have this issue with Xcode 5 where I'm trying to commit a file to a remote git repository (BitBucket) and getting a pop up window with the following error: "The repository "project_name" could not be reached. Please verify that the repository is online and reachable and try again."
I've been working with this setup for awhile now (since Xcode 4) and didn't have any problems with it. Under Xcode->Preferences->Accounts->Repositories I saw the correct repository, but duplicated. I deleted and added it again, but it didn't help. I tried closing the project and rebooting the computer and it didn't help either. I can see the project's history under Source Control->History. I can access the repository on BitBucket.
Any idea where this is coming from and how to solve this issue?
Not sure if this helps in the tracking down of this problem, but here goes anyway:
I have been connecting to a local network git repository perfectly well for a number of months, but I encountered this problem later yesterday and nothing I did seemed to improve the situation. That included:
Rebooting both the development machine and the server;
Reinstalling Xcode from the App Store;
Re-cloning the project from the git command line (which could see the repository perfectly well);
Checking out the repository from Xcode (I was able to check out but every other operation, such as , Commit, Refresh Status etc. seemed to cause the problem...)
Manipulation the repository with SourceTree (which could also see it fine).
Eventually I stumbled across a solution to my local issue. If I launch Xcode with a wired and wireless network enabled then I can't see the repository. If I close it, disable wifi and relaunch it then I can.
I've not had much opportunity to work out what the difference is (especially as the wifi connects to the same network and is the secondary choice for networking) but it does seem to fix it.
Hope that might help others and hopefully I can find a real explanation soon!
Dave,
Well it seems this had nothing to do with Bitbucket.
The problem was a messed up .git folder on my machine.
My project resides in a Dropbox folder. Somehow, perhaps because of accessing it from different machines, it created copy/duplicate files in the .git folder and it messed up Git. After fixing all the conflicts Git returned to working as usual and I was able to commit from Xcode to the remote repository.
Now, if you encounter this issue, you might not have the same setup as mine or work on Dropbox or any similar service, but I strongly recommend checking your Git folder thoroughly. Good chance something is messed up there.
Check internet connection of system.also quit xcode and reopen it.
XCode 5.0.1 on OSX 10.9 does not show the full revision history for my repository under Source Control/History.
What it does display is the history up to a certain point several months ago, but nothing newer than that.
I tried viewing the repo and its history in Versions and there it works just fine.
At some point we migrated the repo from one server to another. We also upgraded the repository a while back, but I don't know to which version of SVN. However, I do know that we have Visual SVN Server and SVN 1.8.0 serverside.
On the other hand, the XCode 5.0 release notes state that XCode uses SVN 1.7, which leads me to suspect that this could be the cause of my issue. However, I also seem to remember that XCode used to refuse to work with unsupported versions of SVN.
Any ideas what could be causing the problem?
What sucks, but is the default in Xcode is that the server status is not automatically updated.
Open the preferences and go to the Source Control Preference and make sure the "Refresh server status automatically" button is checked.
There is nothing I can find within the Xcode UI besides this that tells you the server history is current or how to refresh it.
This is verified as of Xcode 5.1.1. What a shitty UI. Really.
Cheers.
In my case sometimes begins work after "Source Control/Update".
Actually, its terrible bug, you have no guarantees that you see actual list!!!
To answer my own question, it appears that there was something wrong with the working copy. Deleting it and then doing another checkout directly from XCode fixed the problem.
Yet another variation on 'turn it off, then on again'.
Been googling for a while with no luck.
I have been working on my app for a week and I'm trying to commit to git now, so I can start branching and try some new stuff. But I can't commit my changes. I get the following message:
"The working copy "APP NAME" failed to commit files.
fatal: Could not switch to '/Users/Leonne/Documents/iOS Projects/APP NAME/APP NAME/Resources': No such file or directory"
I have initialized the git repository. I don't understand what could be going on.
Before, I did create a "Resources" folder, but deleted it afterwards. I never committed with the existence of this "Resources" folder. I deleted the Resources folder because it was giving me troubles whenever I tried to compile my app. I'm working with XCode 4.4.
Any help will be appreciated.
Ok, I just experienced this problem today morning. I don't know if mine is THE perfect fix. My Mac crashed and I restarted, and I could commit again.
If my fix hold true with you as well, then it could be a bug with XCode.
Edited
It seem my error still exists and the following is my fix.
It seem Xcode GUI have some problem with using GIT properly. So i used the terminal to do this. I went to the working directory and then did a git status this will show you a list of files that were deleted/modified/added. You can manually add them all together using git add or just a straight git commit -a (not recommended on complex projects)
This solved the commit issues and when i went to Xcode, the error doesn't seem to exists anymore
Looks like I have the bad habit of solving my hour-long problems 5 minutes after I post about them on StackOverflow, haha.
My fix was rather easy. I navigated to the specified route and re created the Resources folder. I added the folder to my project via XCode's "add files" feature. Directly afterwards I deleted it from there, moving it to trash. Now I can compile and commit, thank goodness.
