Should foo.xcodeproj/xcuserdata be ignored in git repo?

Question

Using Xcode 6.1 beta 2, I created a new CLI app using Swift. With nothing changed, I noticed dirty files under the Xcode project directory:

$ git status # On branch master # Untracked files: # (use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed) # # letitsinkin.xcodeproj/xcuserdata/ nothing added to commit but untracked files present (use "git add" to track)

Should I ignore 'xcuserdata' in .gitignore? So far, it contains two files:

letitsinkin.xcodeproj/xcuserdata/srid.xcuserdatad/xcschemes/letitsinkin.xcscheme letitsinkin.xcodeproj/xcuserdata/srid.xcuserdatad/xcschemes/xcschememanagement.plist

Yes, ignore it. This data is only applicable to you. Others won't want it, or anything else in xcuserdata.

You may want to just use GitHub's Objective-C .gitignore file, which is well-researched.
