Xcode - Dealing with folders by code - xcode

When you add a folder that contain subfolders and files to the Xcode project, the Xcode ask you about the folder option:
Create groups for any added folders.
Create folder references for any added folders.
I want to download the folder from a server. When the download is complete, the folder option will be 1 or 2? How can I set the folder option to option 2?

When Xcode references a folder, it uses whatever files are stored at that location on your local disk. If you download a new file to that folder or copy a file into that folder, it will show up in your Xcode project. If you change a file in that folder (by overwriting it in the Finder, or by using another app to download another copy of the file over the existing one), Xcode will use the new one.

Xcode add reference to files instead of copy

I have created my framework that i want to add in my project. What i do is:
In my project i chose Xcode -> File -> Add Files to..
In prompt window i go for framework directory, chose .xcodeproj file
Check "Copy items if needed" and "Added folders - Create groups" radio button
What i expect - .xcodeproj that contain my framework is added and copied to my project
What i got - i can see file in Xcode, but not in folder when my app exist. So, when i try to Delete -> Move to trash my framework, it delete it in folder when it was created (not my project folder).
I can't figure out how to actually add and copy file instead of reference to it.

Hosted macOS Preview deploy ipa to App Center

I have set up a hosted mac os preview build for a Xamarin app. All the steps complete except for 'deploy ipa' The publish artifact says nothing will be added. Here is are the settings from the copy files to as well as the output
Seems you set the incorrect Source Folder or Contents pattern in Copy Files step. That caused no files were copied to target folder for publishing.
Please check the logs of Copy Files step to see if the *.ipa files are really copied to $(build.artifactstagingdirectory).
If no files copied, then just check the build logs to get the real working directory (Source Folder in copy step) and make sure the *.ipa files are generated in the directory. (By default it's $(system.defaultworkingdirectory) on my side.)
If the real working directory is just the Source Folder $(Build.SourcesDirectory) you specified in Copy step, then the problem should be the contents pattern.
Contents specify minimatch pattern filters (one on each line) that you
want to apply to the list of files to be copied. For example:
** copies all files in the root folder.
**\ * copies all files in the root folder and all files in all sub-folders.
**\ bin copies files in any sub-folder named bin.

Sublime text 2: Is there a way to store .workspace in a separate folder?

For every project that is created with Sublime Text 2 a pair of files are created in the same directory the user decides to store the project file. Eg. for the 'ExampleSite' project Sublime creates 2 files named ExampleSite.project and ExampleSite.workspace
Is it possible to store the .workspace file in a separate directory?
Project - Save Progect As ...
and delete old files from Project folder
Yes.
.sublime-project has the "path".
The sublime-workspace is a little more complicated.

The file is not under version control

I'm using a Git. When I add a file and check "Copy items into destination group's folder (if needed)" this error occurs:
Try adding it to your project folder and then drag-and-drop to the project in Xcode.
If it still doesn't work you can just create a new file in the project itself, call it the same as the file you are trying to copy and then copy-paste all the code.
Hope it helps
Just delete the file reference from the XCode. Make sure not move file to trash. Then add the file again by drag and drop or by Add file to project option. Now the file will be under source control.

store folders in package contents (bundle resources) in xcode 4.0

I need to store a folder in the package contents, not all files in the project all in one root folder.
How can I do this in XCode 4.0?
Right now I am going to the Build Phases > Copy Bundle Resources to attempt these changes.
Create your folder in the filesystem, then drag it to the resource folder in XCode. In the following dialog select create folder reference for any added folder. The folder should be blue. This folder is copied to your bundle with its contents.
