How To Use GitHub with Xcode


  • Share on Pinterest

In this short video, I will show you how to set up a GitHub repository. Then I show you how to use the new remote repository within Xcode giving you easy source control management and backup. Remote repositories are a must for teams, but I feel solo developers may benefit just as much.

So take three minutes, and learn how to make the workflow seamless and painless in Xcode.

      Right, no reason you cannot go that route. I do it this way to accommodate any other files that I might not want in the repo. Some times temporary reference documents or things like that where it would be too annoying to add to the .gitignore.
