为什么pod应该是repo的一部分(在源代码控制下)并且不应该被忽略

The source is identical You can build it right away as is (even without the cocoapods) Even if a pod is deleted, we still have its copy (Yes, this can happen and it did. In an old project where you want just a small change you would need to implement a new library to be able to even build). pods.xcodeproj settings are part of the source control as well. This means e.g. if you have the project in swift 4, but some pods must be in swift 3.2 because they are not updated yet, these settings will be saved. Otherwise the one who cloned the repo would end up with errors. You can always delete pods from the project and run pod install, the opposite can not be done. Even the authors of the Cocoapods recommend it.

缺点:更大的存储库，令人困惑的差异(主要针对团队成员)，潜在的冲突更多。

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。

我建议使用GitHub的Objective-C gitignore。 具体来说，最佳实践是:

Podfile必须始终处于源代码控制之下。 Podfile。Lock必须始终处于源代码控制之下。 CocoaPods生成的工作区应该保持在源代码控制之下。 任何使用:path选项引用的Pod都应该保存在源代码控制下。 ./Pods文件夹可以保存在源代码控制下。

尽管Pods文件夹是一个构建工件，但在决定是否将其置于源代码控制之下时，您可能会考虑以下原因:

CocoaPods is not a package manager so the original source of the library could be removed in future by the author. If the Pods folder is included in source control, it is not necessary to install CocoaPods to run the project as the checkout would suffice. CocoaPods is still work in progress and there are options which don’t always lead to the same result (for example the :head and the :git options currently are not using the commits stored in the Podfile.lock). There are less points of failure if you might resume work on a project after a medium/long amount of time.

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。

我更喜欢与Podfile和Podfile一起提交Pods目录。锁定，以确保我的团队中的任何人都可以随时签出源代码，他们不必担心任何事情或做额外的事情来使其工作。

如果您在某个pod中修复了一个错误，或者根据需要修改了一些行为，但如果没有提交，这些更改将无法在其他机器上使用，那么这也会有所帮助。

忽略不必要的目录:

xcuserdata/
