At this point I was happy and things seemed simple enough, so I
went ahead and deleted my test Subversion repository & test
application. I then created my 'real' repository and I uploaded
all of my source from my development root folder. I then re-
configured the SCM in xcode and it seemed happy enough.
My complications start here as I'm having difficulty getting xcode
to realize there are changes between my local machine and the
server. There is no letter 'M' (local modified file) appearing to
the left of my source file. After many hours of tinkering I found
my xcode project needs to mirror the root of my repository or it
doesn't work correctly.
It's not clear from your description whether you already figured
this out, but the "gotcha" in starting to use Xcode for SCM is that
after you've uploaded your source (via Xcode's repository Import
function), you must discard that source and check out fresh copies
from the newly-populated repository. Otherwise, Xcode doesn't
realize that your local copies are actually related to the contents
of the repository.
It does sound like this may be the case, so this wouldn't be an
Xcode issue at all. Subversion itself won't recognise that your
directory is linked to the repository. One way to find out whether
this is the case is start a terminal window, change to your source
directory and type 'svn info'. If you get an error "svn: '.' is not
a working copy" then this will confirm that you haven't yet checked
out your source.
In general the workflow in importing your sources to SVN is:
- import your source tree
- move the directory aside
- checkout the source tree
