1. Creating a new file automatically adds it to my repository
This seems like a good idea on the face of it, but XCode has a few bugs
where it misplaces files when you create them... I don't want my
repositories filled with v1.1 deletes...
2. Editing a file automatically checks it out.
I think you're a little confused as to what a checkout is supposed to
do (at least if we're talking CVS)... perhaps you mean you want it to
'edit' files when you first modify them?
3. Saving a file commits it to the repository
Bad idea in general - I save a file dozens of times before I've made
enough changes to commit it. Plus, when I save it won't be complete,
nor working - and in any repository with more than two users (including
read-only public access) checking in modifications which break the
build is a major no-no.
4. Removing a file from the project commits this change to repository
It should at least ask you if you wish to do this, I agree. In the
normal "remove & delete" dialog it should have a checkbox or something
to apply the change to SCM as well.
