On our projects we have separate targets for staging and production (and also separate accounts). I was able to connect xcode cloud to staging account and builds were working ok, but when I made workflow for production (with same app on gitlab) I could not get access. I never got an option to make new app in gitlab so I went and delete all xcode cloud data and gitlab app. Now when It wants to connect to gitlab I get no option to authorize app or create a new one. I also cannot delete SCM

Two days ago I have updated my mac to MacOS 13.2, I have installed 14.2 from before and I also updated my iPhone to 16.3. After all updates I tried to use SwiftUI preview of a view in Xcode, but instead of proper view (the one from the code) whole app runs in preview like I would run it on simulator. Currently I cannot preview any view. Is there any workaround to stop this from happening?
Despite Xcode being the one and most used IDE for iOS, it is far from perfect. I have used many tools in my career and here are some features, that would make it much better or what I miss from other IDEs. I encourage others to chip in discussion and lets all hope, Apple starts to improve Xcode. Will put each issue in separate comment below.
Slow debugger: not sure what bloat Xcode has or what it is doing, but sometimes it can take more than 10 seconds from breakpoint firing to actually see values. Moreover when debugging SwiftUI or something objC I have to drill down to see value of property or use po and p command and hope it works. SwiftUI views and states are a big pain to debug, to see what is changing a value I have to always use didSet trick or some other black magic. Is it too hard to make it easier? Breakpoints with condition can take up to 1 minute to load and I have M1 Max MBP. Just tried cursor IDE few days ago and breakpoints are much faster and without too much bloat in variable inspector.
