From within Xcode, I get this message when trying to commit changes to git:
"The operation could not be performed because the file is not under version control."
If I go to the command line and try the commit, git says:
# On branch master
# Changes not staged for commit:
# (use "git add <file>..." to update what will be committed)
# (use "git checkout -- <file>..." to discard changes in working directory)
#
# modified: myfile.m
#
Ok, it should be under version control, since I cloned the project from its repo. But I'll bite, so from the Command Line, I did a 'git add myfile.m' (that option is grayed out in Xcode). Now, I can commit the file from the CL. If I make a change to the same file and try to commit from Xcode again, I get the "...file is not under version control" error again. So now I go back to the CL, 'add' the file again, try to commit the file from Xcode and get the same error again, but, I can commit from the CL.
I migrated this project from a Subversion repo, using 'svn export', so there are no .svn directories to confuse Xcode, or git, for that matter. I even did a 'find . -name .svn' from the CL to confirm that they did not exist within the project. I mention that, because I found a post at cocoa builder where a user with the same problem found a stray .svn folder in his project. I tried a 'git add *' just to make sure any missing files would be added, but I continue to get the error when committing from within Xcode.
Anybody know what the problem might be?
Thanks
