It should be the new project - unless you have linked files outside your project directory.
You can check on this by opening the inspector panel, selecting a file and looking under the Identity and Type section in the inspector panel. It should show the file's path.
Note: if you have the Identity and Type section closed, as a result of UI changes in Xcode 5, it's not obvious at all that this is an actual button that displays info about the current file. For some strange reason, Apple removed the disclosure triangle style graphic that shows people this is an expandable item.
No idea who thought that was a good idea, but it isn't a good idea.
In any case, with Identity and Type expanded, you can check your files to see if they are all within your project's folder and in that case, if you edit the files in the new project copy, they will be edited in there.
