Override username for .pbxuser

Greetings,

Wondering if anybody has come across this before and has a solution for me while I wait for something to happen in the bug reporting system. I have 3 computers that I do development work on. I use CVS for my SCM to share the projects between the computers, most of these projects are client/server so it really really helps to be doing work simultaneously on two computers.

Here is my dilemma. Since all three of these computers are mine, or at least run under my login, they all have the same short username, 'daniel'. This has been causing problems with committing the project files lately. The commit project feature has worked beautifully when working with only a single computer (or computers with different usernames), but CVS gets very confused with all the conflicts caused by the different UI settings stored in the .pbxuser and .mode1 files. Is there a way to override the username that XCode uses for these files? For example, so I could set it to something like 'daniel-laptop', 'daniel-desktop', 'daniel-whatever'?

Also, on a somewhat related note (also have a bug report in for this) anybody know why (or if I just did something wrong) FileMerge cannot handle .pbxuser and .pbxproj files? It shows the differences and conflicts perfectly, lets me work on them, but will not let me save the file. When I try to save it gives an error saying it does not support this type of file. I merged the file in by hand (text editor to resolve conflicts) and everything is fine. I don't get why this is an issue, since they are text files, so I am really hoping I just did something wrong. This is what brought the previous problem to a head, I had to spend 30 minutes manually merging in changes to my .pbxproj file (yes I know, not much I can do about those conflicts, but it was the last straw :) ).

Thanks to any ideas,
