Tips for using Subversion and XCode in a team project
- by FelipeUY
Hi to all.
I've been working on an Xcode (iPhone) project with three different persons. We have the project on a Subversion repository, but we still don't completely understand some aspects of the Subversion + Xcode methodology:
1) Each time someone does a commit on a single file, it may appear or not in the project of the other developers. Even though the same person that creates the new files, it adds those files to the Repository and then it commits on those files. Why does that happens? Any suggestions?
2) Each person that is involved on the project can't do a "Commit entire project" without causing a considerable headache to the rest of the developers... any idea how this should be done?.
The working methodology that we are trying to implement is that only one developer (generally the leader of the project) can Commit the entire project but he must inform the rest of the team, so everybody can be prepared to receive a message asking him to discard his changes and read the new files from the repository.
I need suggestions or advice on how to handle a project with multiple developers using subversion.
We have read the Subversion handbook, and many other messages on StackOverflow but I still can't find any useful advice.
Thanks for any tip!
