Hi all, reposting this from here:
https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/789849/xattr-c-not-removing-com-apple-finderinfo-attribute
I came to this problem because my Xcode project was failing to build due to the error "resource fork, Finder information, or similar detritus not allowed" (was trying the solutions on this post).
Basically, running xattr -cr . in the terminal on my project directory removes all extended attributes except com.apple.FinderInfo, which stays on all .xcodeproj and .xcworkspace files. I've tried everything under the sun, from sudo to xattr -d to dot_clean to tar to rsync and nothing works. Is this just an immortal attribute that can never be removed? I'm truly at a loss here, this is for my senior thesis project.
