I think you're going to have to bite the bullet, join the rest of us, and do the reorganization. Representatives from Apple have stated a couple times on this list that they are aware of this issue and are looking at how they might "fix" it in a future release of Xcode. Of course, that is NO guarantee that the behavior will be changed.

Unfortunately, if the behavior is ever changed, all of us who have made the switch from 2.4/5 to 3.0 will have already done the hard work of reorganizing our projects to conform with this particular requirement.

C'est la vie.

Trust me, I know exactly how you feel as I spent several hours just this past weekend reorganizing my projects so I could make the switch to 3.0.

I am a long time PB/Xcode user, and I am using Xcode for several different coding purposes. Among these are web applications (collaborative effort), open source projects (read-only), and my own Pascal, FORTRAN, C/Obj-C projects. The following happened to work for me since Xcode was Project Builder.

For several of my projects, the Xcode project directory is different from the source directory, and the SCM management files (CVS or SVN) reside together with the sources in their respective sub- directories. Xcode up to 2.5 automatically identified the correct SCM management directories and operated seamlessly on it.

This worked for me even for SCM source trees hosted at different locations which are collected in the same Xcode project. I searched in the archives before writing to here, and I found somebody stating in April last year that this should not work. <http://lists.apple.com/archives/xcode-users/2007/Apr/msg00237.html > This is not true for Xcode up to 2.5, but unfortunately, it seems to be true for Xcode 3.0.

To no avail, I tried for some hours now to find a way to tell Xcode 3.0 not to use the entries of the newly introduced repository set up, but of the more generic SCM management directories, that are outside of the project directory. I found out, that I can leave the repository set up almost empty and Xcode would take the generic SCM settings, but the show stopper seems to be, that Xcode refuses to activate SCM if it does not find SCM management files in its project directory.

Please, do not take this as a rant, and of course, I can resolve this by re-organizing my projects. Anyway, before I sit down for several hours for doing this, I wanted to ask here, whether there is a simple switch for making Xcode 3.0 behave as before.

Many thanks in advance for any help.

Best regards

Rolf Jansen
