Has anyone found a way to merge changes in Xcode project or Core Data model files?

Is there a way to use a VCS (I'm using git) and have it work with merges to the Xcode files? F开发者_如何学JAVAor example, if my co-worker adds a new Group to the project, when I merge in his changes, I get the Group merged in?

Or if he adds an attr to a Core Data entity, I get that attr in my Core Data model?

Core Data and nib files don't merge well.

Xcode project (project.pbxproj) files generally do, with one exception: when two team members both add files to the same project group. Then they both tend to collate on the same line in the project file and cause a conflict. In the vast majority of cases, accepting both edits one after the other (order is irrelevant) results in a successfully merged file.

The easiest solution to merging the pbxproj file is using Xcode's FileMerge Utility as described here:

Basically FileMerge already knows how to do it for you, so celebrate :) You don't even need to select which parts to merge, it already knows. I would assume since the pbxproj file is always such a huge problem, but FileMerge knows how to merge it, the same will most likely apply to Core Data and xib files as well. Although I have never personally ran into that issue.
