I've got a Xcode project that references other projects. Fairly
frequently, Xcode decides to add or remove a comment from the
remoteGlobalIDString line, along these lines :

+ remoteGlobalIDString =
8D5B49B6048680CD000E48DA;
...which is sort of a pain in the ass for version control. Does any
know what causes Xcode to add/remove the comment, or if it's possible
to prevent it from doing so?
Noone else experienced this?
I think we've all experienced pain in versioning .xcodeproj bundles
that change even when you don't remember any change to the project.
Why it happens is known only to Xcode engineers, and they won't
comment because Apple never commits itself on implementation details.
The xcode-users list is your next stop.
* Not versioning <username>.pbxuser, etc., files greatly reduces the
problem.
* File a bug/enhancement request at bugreporter.apple.com .
