Is there a way to merge XCode 4.2 Storyboard files?

I'm working with another developer on an iPhone project and all my attempts at merging changes into a storyboard file have met with failure and after which Xcode is no longer able to load the storyboard. Consequently I have to do an svn revert and then redo my modifications.

    as far as I know there is no way. and that is the argument to keep using XIB files when working in a team. – Marc Schlösser Mar 26 '12 at 15:36

    A way to help with storyboards is to have multiple ones. see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9575702/segue-to-another-storyboard – finneycanhelp Jun 02 '12 at 15:51

Here's the only tool I've ever come across which lets you merge storyboards:

  • NB: I tried to undelete the author's own answer which gave this tool too, but I need two other mods approval. It's been almost a year and they haven't stepped-in, so I'm glad I simply re-posted the answer. This process is not good - don't credit me for the answer. – Adam Dec 03 '17 at 00:38

    I believe that some people don't like us revealing the flaws in StackOverflow, and the poor quality moderation done by some people, within the answer to a question. So I moved it to the comment instead. – Adam Jan 05 '18 at 00:56
