Of course you could have Versions for the Xcode project file, but what about the source code files? How would they be handled? I'm guessing that since Xcode doesn't implement Versions that the technology is not well suited for such an app.

I think you could pull it off, if there were some API to get the NSData objects for earlier versions of a file and present it using your own home-spun interface. Unfortunately, unless I’m missing something, I can’t seem to find any such API — only way to get at versions seems to be through the default interface.
