I'm not talking about the need to have all your source under the
project now. I can deal with that.
I'm talking specifically about how, when I open up my project,
Xcode will do its thing with hooking up to the repository and it
will appear to be checking the status of files, but it doesn't
actually work. Or rather, it's very intermittent. Maybe internally
it's working, but it doesn't update the status of files which I
know (and have confirmed) DID change. That is, I don't see the
little 'M's or 'U's or 'C's next to the files that changed, except
(sometimes) I see it next to the Project itself, but not always
even there. Even when I tell Xcode to "Refresh Entire Project", it
does it's little thing in the activity window (1 operation
pending[1], spinning icon, blahblahblah). Then it completes and ...
and ... no status changes. :-(

Anyway, I'm going to file a bug, but I was curious if others have
noticed this behavior as well. Or maybe there's some known
"gotcha" in Xcode 3.0 that I'm not aware of.
Fwiw, this was a clean install of Leopard and Xcode. The projects
themselves were upgraded and remain in "2.4 compatible" mode,
because I still have one machine running Tiger with Xcode 2.5.

[1] The "1 operation pending" message is different from previous
Xcode's. I assume that's normal for Xcode 3?
I haven't seen reports of this specific behavior. Please file a bug
with as many details of your SCM setup as you can.

Thanks, Andrew. Bug has been filed <rdar://5765050>.
I mentioned this in the bug report, but might as well ask here. In
previous versions of Xcode, when I opened a project the Activity
Viewer would say it was processing 60 ... 59 ... 59 ... all the way
down to 1. But with Xcode 3, I only ever see "1 operation pending"
when I open the project or do a "Refresh Entire Project". Is it
possible it's only checking the status of the project file itself? And
yet, if I modify a file within Xcode, it *does* figure out that the
file was modified locally and updates the status correctly.
