Searching for a Blame

Question

I'm trying to find some changes I made to some code within a project. This is a team project having multiple contributors.

Is it possible to search for a particular blame within Xcode?

It would be easier for me to search via blame than to remember a particular file and line number.

Yes. Very helpful (particularly in a team environment). – Frederick C. Lee Jan 28 '19 at 17:23 — Frederick C. Lee, Jan 28 '19 at 17:23

Inside Xcode, open the left side menu and navigate to Source Control Navigator. You can also do this using the keyboard shortcut cmd2
In there, select the branch you're working on.
In the text box in the top right corner, start typing your version control username and press:
Author:{your-username}

This will show you all commits you have pushed to the repository. You can select a commit to see which files were changed and access the respective files directly from there.
