To Build

You can locally override the Xcode settings for code signing by creating a DeveloperSettings.xcconfig file locally in the project directory. This allows for a pristine project with code signing set up with the appropriate developer ID and certificates, and for a developer to be able to have local settings without needing to check in anything into source control.

Create a plain text file in it: DeveloperSettings.xcconfig and give it the contents:

DEVELOPMENT_TEAM = <Your Team ID>
CODE_SIGN_IDENTITY = Mac Developer
CODE_SIGN_STYLE = Automatic
ORGANIZATION_IDENTIFIER = <Your Domain Name Reversed>

Set DEVELOPMENT_TEAM to your Apple supplied development team. You can use Keychain Access to find you Development Team ID:

Open Keychain Access on your development machine.
On the left-hand side, make sure "My Certificates" is selected.
Find the certificate that reads Apple Development: <Your Name>
Right click on the certificate and select "Get Info".

Your Development Team ID is the value next to Organizational Unit.

Set ORGANIZATION_IDENTIFIER to a reversed domain name that you control or have made up.

You should be able to open the ContactManager.xccodeproj in Xcode and build without code signing errors and without modifying the ghNotifier Xcode project.
