Create a remote from a local source code repository

Create a remote source code repository when you want to access your project from another Mac, back up your project on a server, or share your project with others.

  1. In the Source Control navigator (), Control-click the repository, then choose “Create [Project] Remote” from the pop-up menu.

  2. If necessary, choose the remote account or “Add an account” from the Account pop-up menu.

    Note: If you add a remote repository account in Account preferences, you won’t need to enter this information again.

  3. Optionally, enter a repository name that is different than the project name.

  4. Enter a description of the repository in the text field.

  5. To allow public read access to the repository, select Public; otherwise, select Private.

  6. Click Create.

    Xcode commits and pushes the changes to the server.
