Xcode4的UserInterfaceState文件给Git和Subversion带来了麻烦

Question

when committing or pulling I frequently get an error whith the file UserInterfaceState.xcuserstate which resides in the project folder. I'm not sure for what the file is good for, does anyone know?

Is it fine to just ignore it when committing?

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

You should be using a Git ignore file for those files. Here is a sample that I use:

    # Xcode
    build/*
    *.pbxuser
    !default.pbxuser
    *.mode1v3
    !default.mode1v3
    *.mode2v3
    !default.mode2v3
    *.perspectivev3
    !default.perspectivev3
    *.xcworkspace
    !default.xcworkspace
    xcuserdata
    profile
    *.moved-aside

Answer 2

Yes, you can add those to your git/svn ignore settings. You only need to commit the project.pbxproj part of the project.
