在XCode 4.6中使用Subversion

Question

I have little experience using VSS before. For iOS development, I have installed Subversion on a remote Windows machine and accessing it from my Mac. And I have a few gray areas to clear up.

1. This is one of the tutorials I followed. But its written based on an older version of XCode. The SCM tab in XCode preferences is not in XCode 4.6. Is it completely removed or moved somewhere else?

2. The main reason to choose Subversion over Git was the ability to lock files in Subversion. I know you can do it through the Terminal. Is there a way to do it through XCode itself?

3. Say I checkout an XCode project to my local mac. And locked a certain file. An another co-worker also checkout the same project to edit that same file I locked. I read that the other person can also edit that file but he cannot commit it back since it is locked. Is there a way to notify the other people that a certain file is locked at the time of checking out?

4. In the repository, I have created the standard tags, branches and trunk folders. The project should be in trunk folder, right?

Answer 1

1. From the menu bar, choose Window > Organizer. Then in the Organizer window, choose the Repositories tab. The + button at the bottom left lets you add a new repository.

2. No.

3. You could try setting the svn:needs-lock property, I suppose , but you won't be able to do that from Xcode.

4. Yes.
