Re: Xcode 2.3 initial impressions



However I've found that just opening a project results in the mod date
changing for the main project.pbxproj file. So our standalone CVS client
thinks it's changed when it hasn't. The work around is to just update
these files so that our CVS client realizes that there's nothing to
check in.

But even with this work around this is a source of constant busy work
and irritation. It would be great if in the near future Xcode would only
touch the project.pbxproj file when it actually changes.

What I do to deal with this is to put a CVS watch on the pbxproj file (note that this is different from CVS watch "add"). This will cause the pbxproj file to get checked out read-only. You have to manually unlock the file when you want to actually make changes, but the upside is that it is never modified unless you specifically take actions to do so. The drawback is it can lead to some of those warnings about not being able to save the project that Steve mentioned.
