xcstrings CFBundleName value changes after building different target
Hi, I followed Xcode’s recommendation and migrated to the new strings format (*.strings → *.xcstrings) using the Migrate to String Catalog option. My project has two build targets: MyAppName MyAppNameVFSCopy Every time I build one or the other target, the value in the .xcstrings file changes under CFBundleName > en > stringUnit > value, switching between MyAppName and MyAppNameVFSCopy. As a result, Git detects a change in source control each time, which is quite annoying. How can I prevent this from happening? After building MyAppNameVFSCopy target, the "value" is MyAppNameVFSCopy "CFBundleName" : { "comment" : "Bundle name", "extractionState" : "extracted_with_value", "localizations" : { "en" : { "stringUnit" : { "state" : "new", "value" : "MyAppNameVFScopy" } } } } After building MyAppName target, the "value" changes to MyAppName "CFBundleName" : { "comment" : "Bundle name", "extractionState" : "extracted_with_value", "localizations" : { "en" : { "stringUnit" : { "state" : "new", "value" : "MyAppName" } } } } Deleting CFBundleName from *.xcstrings file didn't help. CFBundleName is automatically created again after building target. Both targets has it's on plist file. In those files: <key>CFBundleName</key> <string>${PRODUCT_NAME}</string> Attaching full xcstrings file InfoPlist.xcstrings
