While attempting to build an app from a tutorial, I noticed that there are now several question marks - and even a letter A - in my navigator area. I don't know why they're there and I've never seen them before. Could someone please explain why they're there and what they mean? Should I do something to make them disappear? Please help. Thank you!
This is because versioning is activated, using Git.
? means the file is not yet followed, A means the file was added since the last commit.

Would I be able to deactivate this in XCode? I don't even remember activating that at all.
Inside Xcode: I don't know, I just gave it quick look and it doesn't seems possible (most likely to avoid accidental deletions for people who use it extensively)
Outside Xcode:
- In a terminal, go inside the correct directory and do
ls -la
. - You should see a
.git
directory. - Delete it, using
rm -ri .git
(-r
for recursive,-i
to ensure you only delete what you are sur you want to delete) and restart Xcode. It should work, though I have not tested just yet.
