Re: "Ghost" files in SCM Results [solved]

You mean you deleted them from your repository, or you deleted them from disk?

If you deleted them from disk, you just KO'ed your index, so either Xcode will have to spend the time to rebuild it the next time you open the project (thus returning those files to your SCM Results list), or Xcode will attempt to run without an index, which can cause certain things like syntax coloring and double-clicking of symbols to not work as well.

These files will only show up in your SCM Results window if their parent folder, {MyProject}.pbxindex, and the folder above that, {MyProject}.build, are already checked in to your repository. If they are, you should remove them from your repository. Then, in your SCM Results window, when you build, you'll only see a ? entry for {MyProject}.build, and you shouldn't be bothered by any contents underneath that.

Actually they were in the build folder in the local disk, not the repository. I deleted them and everything

Over the past few days I've accumulated a number of "Ghost" files in my SCM Results panel of the sort

pbxindex.header

Debug, etc

Delete doesn't get rid of them and their neither in the repository or the local disk
They tend to obscurate my working files.


Is there anyway to get rid of them?

Those are the project index. It shouldn't be in your project folder, it should be in your build folder; if your build folder is in your project folder, it shouldn't be, especially if your project folder is under SCM control.

Well actually, the default location of the build folder is inside your project directory. But if those files are showing up individually under the SCM status, then you may have added the build folder (and possibly more below it) to your repository. It's probably best to remove them (from the repository).
