How to resolve git pull conflicts in xcode ui

问题:

I am using the Xcode repository GUI with the latest version of Xcode instead of the command line. I did an initial pull of the rep without a problem. I made some changes to the local files. At the same time, my other developer made some changes. I committed my changes to the local rep but needed his changes to do a proper build. We only have 1 branch.

I tried to pull and the Xcode UI reports 6 conflicts (which is what I would expect as I need the 6 files to do the proper build).

My question is how to resolve the conflicts? I read online I should be able to use the left and right button at the bottom of screen to let me pick which file version. I went through all of the 6 files and used the proper buttons to choose which changes I wanted.

However the Pull button in the lower right hand corner is disabled and greyed out.

Above the file listing of the commit screen are three icons, a directory view, a documents view and the last one which looks like some horizontal lines. When I had a similar issue, I found that clicking on these revealed other files I had not yet resolved.

I resolved those I could although noted that some of these files included some .DS-Store 's which are hidden Apple (Desktop Services Store) files which have been noted elsewhere of causing git issues.

I placed the .DS_Store into .gitignore using the instructions at How can I Remove .DS_Store files from a Git repository?

That fixed it for me.

In my case, I just had more conflicts further down that I didn't see. Strangely, since using Xcode 6 this is the first time I've actually had to deal with conflicts -- and I made them! (on a different machine)

At any rate, just scrolling down a bit more revealed that there were more conflicts in the file and once I chose "right" or "left" (or "right then left"/"left then right"), the "Pull" button enabled and I was able to complete my pull...

Whew! Hope this helps!

For me, this was a file that had been deleted in the branch but was still present in Master. Once I unchecked that file, I was able to Pull.

I had this happen in Xcode 9.4.1, and what I needed to do, after having resolved all the conflicts, was the following:

• Switch to Source Control view in the left pane above the tree view (the box with a cross symbol in it)
• Toggle the checkbox next to the top-level project entry from off to on. This would enable the Pull button, but just for a second, not long enough to click it.
• Toggle the checkbox back to off, and back to on again. Now the Pull button remains enabled.
• Click Pull.

This feels very much like a bug; I haven't verified yet if the issue persists, and the solution still works, in Xcode 10.

Just do "git pull" from the command line, then rebuild to find the conflict markers and fix them manually.
