Sometimes we need to manage the code by using Git. In our company we store the Git source repository on the server.
It's my business to manage that source. But when I try to create a new one by Xcode, I get problems.
Xcode can only create loal copy
Xcode can just create a local repository, and download the existing source from server.
After creating...
So we must find another way to create the one on server.
Create *.git on server
First of all, upload the original source to server.
Go into the project folder and create the hidden folder .git.
Then type below commands in project folder for preparing the first version.
git add .
git commit -m "initial version"
At last go to the father folder of project folder and create the *.git folder.
You will find the *.git folder. And that is what we need!
Check out the Git source repository from server
This time go to Source Control -> Check Out..., and input the link where the Git source repository is.
The link format is
ssh://username@servername/absolute_directory_of_git_source_repository
