Xcode's RTF editor uses the same framework as TextEdit does, so it has the same effect. Xcode manages better with its own wrappers (the .xcodeproj file, .nib files, etc.). In addition, editors that perform safe-save by writing the new copy, deleting the old one, and renaming the new one are generally incompatible with SCM systems.
Urk.
It sounds like Xcode already knows how to do the workaround described in that linked post (or something to the same effect), but just doesn't do it for RTFD packages. If so, would there be some point in reporting this as a bug or an enhancement request?
