You will have to set up a subversion "server" nonetheless. If I am
not mistaken, for your scenario this can be as simple as creating a
directory on your local disk and initializing it as a subversion
repository.
The next two steps are things that the Xcode UI can not do, and you
will have to do them manually
- Import a project into the repository
- Checkout a working copy
Once you have a working copy of your project, Xcode will find all the
info it needs in THAT directory (not your original project). This
works the same with cvs. The SCM menu should be available.
You find an excellent tutorial about doing this with cvs at http://
developer.apple.com/internet/opensource/cvsoverview.html. Even if you
plan to use subversion you should read to learn what this is all
about. And when you read another subversion tutorial, things will
seem familiar and make more sense.
I just want a simple versioning system in Xcode that can
automatically increment my version numbers and keep trace of the
changes.
Subversion keeps track of your changes - provided you commit your
source on a regular bases. If you do not commit your code at certain
points, all you have for tracking changes is "Undo".
Subversion (or cvs, for that matter) are NOT "version systems" in the
way that they will automatically generate a "User Readable" version
number, let alone for an Xcode project. Some people use the agv -
Apple Generic Version - tool in conjunction with cvs or subversion
for that.
Others (like me) have written custom scripts and helper tools to do
this. You see, this is entirely a different beats, if related to
tools like subversion or cvs.

Is Subversion what I need ? And how to use it with Xcode ?
Thanks,
Eric.
