How to show the SCM column in Xcode

I have been using Source Control Management with Xcode for the last 6 months or so. But setting up a new project I've only had to do a couple of times. And every time I always come across some kind of difficulty with showing the SCM Column on the left of Xcode in the Groups and Files view. This post is really here so that the next time I do a search I can find the info I need easily :D

After having setup SCM with XCode the SCM Smart Group wasn't showing on the left. But I couldn't figure out how to get it to show, last time I did this it showed automatically. The trick is to Right Click on the Groups & Files heading and select SCM in the list. Yay! How easy was that?

  1. Hi,
    I'm trying to use SCM from XCode for the first time and I do see the column, but the only modified file I get to see is the project.pbxproj file no other file will show neither .cpp, .h, .mm, new files added to the project... Do you have any idea what the problem is ? I've been browsing the WWW most of the day but could not find a clue !
