我属于不签入库的开发人员阵营，假设我们在其他位置有一个好的副本可用。因此，在我的.gitignore中，我包含了以下针对CocoaPods的行:

Pods/
#Podfile.lock  # changed my mind on Podfile.lock

Then I make sure that we have a copy of the libraries in a safe location. Rather than (mis-)use a project's code repository to store dependencies (compiled or not) I think the best way to do this is to archive builds. If you use a CI server for your builds (such as Jenkins) you can permanently archive any builds that are important to you. If you do all your production builds in your local Xcode, make a habit of taking an archive of your project for any builds you need to keep. Something like: 1. Product --> Archive

分配……提交到iOS应用商店/保存为企业或Ad-hoc部署/等等 在Finder中显示您的项目文件夹 右键压缩WhateverProject

这提供了整个项目的构建映像，包括用于构建应用程序的完整项目和工作区设置，以及二进制发行版(如Sparkle，专有sdk，如TestFlight等)，无论他们是否使用CocoaPods。

更新:我已经改变了我的想法，现在提交Podfile。锁定源代码控制。然而，我仍然相信pod本身是构建工件，应该在源代码控制之外进行管理，通过另一种方法，如CI服务器或如上所述的存档过程。

对我来说，最重要的是将来证明你的来源。如果您计划让您的项目持续一段时间，而CocoaPods消失了，或者其中一个pod的源代码崩溃了，那么如果试图从存档中重新构建，那么您就完全不走运了。

这可以通过定期的全源档案来缓解。

就我个人而言，我不检查Pods目录和内容。我不能说我花了很长时间来考虑这些影响，但我的推理是这样的:

Podfile引用了每个依赖项的特定标记或提交，因此pod本身可以从Podfile生成，因此它们更像一个中间构建产品而不是源代码，因此，在我的项目中不需要版本控制。

.gitignore file

没有答案真的提供了。gitignore，所以这里有两种口味。

在Pods目录中检查(好处)

Xcode/iOS友好的git忽略，跳过Mac OS系统文件，Xcode，构建，其他存储库和备份。

. gitignore:

# Mac OS X Finder
.DS_Store

# Private Keys
*.pem

# Xcode legacy
*.mode1
*.mode1v3
*.mode2v3
*.perspective
*.perspectivev3
*.pbxuser

# Xcode
xcuserdata/
project.xcworkspace/
DerivedData/

# build products
build/
*.[oa]

# repositories
.hg
.svn
CVS

# automatic backup files
*~.nib
*.swp
*~
*(Autosaved).rtfd/
Backup[ ]of[ ]*.pages/
Backup[ ]of[ ]*.key/
Backup[ ]of[ ]*.numbers/

忽略Pods目录(好处)

.gitignore:(附加到前面的列表)

# Cocoapods
Pods/

不管你是否检查Pods目录，Podfile和Podfile。Lock应该始终保持在版本控制之下。

如果pod没有签入，您的Podfile可能需要为每个Cocoapod请求明确的版本号。Cocoapods.org的讨论。

Cocoapod文档中直接给出了答案。你可以看看“http://guides.cocoapods.org/using/using-cocoapods.html#should-i-ignore-the-pods-directory-in-source-control”。

Whether or not you check in your Pods folder is up to you, as workflows vary from project to project. We recommend that you keep the Pods directory under source control, and don't add it to your .gitignore. But ultimately this decision is up to you: Benefits of checking in the Pods directory After cloning the repo, the project can immediately build and run, even without having CocoaPods installed on the machine. There is no need to run pod install, and no Internet connection is necessary. The Pod artifacts (code/libraries) are always available, even if the source of a Pod (e.g. GitHub) were to go down. The Pod artifacts are guaranteed to be identical to those in the original installation after cloning the repo. Benefits of ignoring the Pods directory The source control repo will be smaller and take up less space. As long as the sources (e.g. GitHub) for all Pods are available, CocoaPods is generally able to recreate the same installation. (Technically there is no guarantee that running pod install will fetch and recreate identical artifacts when not using a commit SHA in the Podfile. This is especially true when using zip files in the Podfile.) There won't be any conflicts to deal with when performing source control operations, such as merging branches with different Pod versions. Whether or not you check in the Pods directory, the Podfile and Podfile.lock should always be kept under version control.

将“Pods”目录作为一个git子模块/单独的项目似乎是一种很好的结构方式，原因如下。

在项目回购中使用pod，当与多个开发人员一起工作时，可能会在pull请求中造成非常大的差异，几乎不可能看到人们更改的实际工作(想象一下库更改了数百到数千个文件，而实际项目中只更改了少数文件)。 我看到了不向git提交任何东西的问题，因为拥有库的人可以随时删除它，而你实际上是SOL，这也解决了这个问题。
