Xcode source control not synced with git status (and with repo)

Question

EDIT: Thanks @RobMac - XCode restart did solved it. Good luck for all

Looks like a bug...

I Have two files in Xcode that marked in the source control with question mark (so it's untracked files)

When I do git status i get:

On branch develop Your branch is up-to-date with 'origin/develop'. Untracked files: (use "git add ..." to include in what will be committed)

Podfile.lock

Pods/

The files are not listed.

I try to workaround in Xcode by right click and "Add "FileName.swift"" Or to commit them in the commit window. Both do NOTHING!!

When I look at the repo in BitBucket I see the files in their last revision... So It's great... The problem is only the files status in Xcode

How can I overcome this?

Thanks!

Xcode has its own .gitignore and git config check it to see it content. There might be something for those files — CodeWizard

@CodeWizrad but I committed them with Xcode and it worked.. it's just their status that wrong! — Yitzchak

Late answer, but I had this happen to me. This is what I tried without success:

Closed existing project, not Xcode
Made changes on the command line (moved/deleted files)
Used GIT on the command line
Opened up existing project
Everything messed up
List item

I fixed it by completely closing out of Xcode and then opening up project again.

Thx, but I tried this, it didn’t solve my problem. And the problem is gone now so I can’t check it out.

I fixed it by closing the Xcode project/workspace, then issue git status.

Stupid Xcode! If I don't need to check the switch of creating initial git repo when creating new project, I'll turn off the feature completely.

did you check ls -al?

checkout how many .git directories exist

if you have mistake you did git init more than you expect because of xocde

I have only one .git folder, I never did git init manually.. My project is not new.. it's very old.. The problem is very new

developupupup Over a year ago

just input cli git status every folder you generated

or find out have you any .gitignore what you didn't generate if we wanna use some kind of IDE. we have to know about it very exactly
