macos - After upgraded to Xcode 4.2, Organizer - SVN repository stopped working

Question

I recently upgraded my Xcode to 4.2. Since then my Organizer-Repository stopped working. Initially it said "Host is unreachable" and placed red dot every where.

In the same Mac 10.6.8, i do have SvnX and it works with same SVN location without any problem. I also tested this in Safari and found it is working (Server supports VisualSVN). Only Xcode is finding problem with this location.

I even appended my private/etc/host files with svn.ip.address my-svn-pet-name and used that in my xcode following this post. Doesn't work.

My repository is connected over a specific port 8080. I gave ip-address in svn url as http://my-svn-pet-name:8080/...

Any help is highly appreciated.

UPDATE: To isolate the issue, i tried to connect http://gdata-objectivec-client.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ from xcode organizer and it works without any problem. I didn't supply any user-name and password for this location. However, my repository requires authentication, in my recent tries when i select the short-cut on left pane, the dot-icon next to trunk, branches and tag glows green. However, when i click 'root' and tried to expand 'trunk' it says 'Unable to load revisions'

UPDATE 9/9/11: Uninstalled xcode using command sudo /Developer/Library/uninstall-devtools --mode=all and Restarted the mac and Re-installed Xcode 4.2.

When i open Organizer, contrary to my expectation, all svn shortcuts are intact and the issue still persists.

The problems are only with the latest XCode 4 (build 4C177 — iOS 5 beta 7).

A slightly earlier version of XCode 4 (build 4C104 — iOS 5 beta 5) works fine.

Like Saran, I tried the suggestions from majkelx and OMH and they did not work for me.

When I launch build 4C177, and immediately open the Organizer, the repositories initially show green (as Saran noted) and histories are available. Any other operation turns them red. But the comparison view in the text editor successfully shows diffs against the repository, with revision number.

So, I conclude that the repositories are set up OK and authentication is actually working, but various source-control functionality in build 4C177 is buggy. I'd advise installing an earlier XCode 4 and waiting for the next release. I filed a bug report with Apple.
