Using File.Open, I accidentally hit return on a folder while navigating down through a deep folder hierarchy. Apparently Xcode interpreted this gesture as "load into memory every file in that folder hierarchy”. Unfortunately this is quite a lot of files (somewhere between 1e5 and 1e6 files?). So Xcode churned, unresponsive, for a long time, and I finally had to kill it.
Now when I launch Xcode, it tries to restore my state, _including_ the set of files that it was trying to load.
Is there a way to:
1) prevent Xcode from restoring my state on launch?
2) prevent Xcode from interpreting the "select a folder” in File.Open as "load into memory every file in that folder hierarchy”
Using Xcode 5.0.1 on Mavericks.
