It surely must be the greatest inhibitor to the development of a decent supra-Apple tools ecosystem that Apple devs are so resistant to non-Apple tools. It's true you need Xcode for a few things (IB, core data, some build stuff). But for daily coding it's rarely necessary. A decent editor + xcodebuild is enough. If you prefer an IDE (I do), use AppCode, which is not perfect, but it's unarguably better than Xcode (inevitably, as JetBrains specialise in developer tools, listen intently to developers, and have as a natural consequence developed superior expertise to that of Apple in that area).

I'll have to check this out. It appears that some references to projects are just based on the project name.
Just last week, I was opening an older copy of a project in Xcode and I had a newer copy opened. Some of the actions performed were done against the second copy of the project that I had open while trying to do a build.
Of course, quit and restart worked, but come on.
TL;DR: Xcode gets confused easily if you have two projects open using the same project name.
