- coldtea 14y agoWhy merge it? Merging isn't even funny with regular code. How about having a process for who works on what or when? Either than or let a single person be responsible for the UI.
- mh- 14y agothese things work well-enough in very small development teams.
- cmeranda 14y agoWe're a two person development team who sits in the same 5 foot radius and we've had to merge xibs semi-frequently. It's not overly viable to ask the person next to you what files they plan to work on in the hour, because that can be difficult to determine in advance. Additionally once I upgraded Xcode before my partner, and suddenly our xibs were out of sync. In terms of one person working on the UI, even if that's the case, the other person might change an outlet, or create a non-UI object in the xib. It's complicated to coordinate changes because the breadth of features (as they appear in the codebase) is unpredictable.
