Question

I have installed the pods in my project.Every time I pull the code from bitbucket getting pods error.Because of this error every time I'm reinstalling the pods when I pull the code.Is there any other solution to resolve this issue.Can anyone please help on this

Answer 1

Git stores your changes, it is not designed to store things that can be derived (compiler intermediates, downloadable dependencies, user data, etc...). So the solution is to put them under a .gitignore file, which instructs git to ignore those files when adding all files to commit.

If you want a .gitignore file for any environment, use gitignore.io. For iOS, request a gitignore for macOS, CocoaPods

So, your pods will not be affected on anyone who clone the project. He must use pod install on his own copy. This gitignore will not affect the Podfile itself

Answer 2

You can add .gitignore to your project and add following into that file:

**/**.DS_Store
**/**.orig
**/xcuserdata
(YourProjectName)/Pods
.DS_Store

It won't add some of the files that you don't want in your version control.
