[Qgis-developer] How to use x-code qgis installer

[John C. Tull]

Looking back at my last build invoking just the xcodebuild command, it  
appears to build a release target:

=== BUILDING AGGREGATE TARGET config OF PROJECT Qgis WITH THE DEFAULT  
CONFIGURATION (Release) ===

Perhaps I made a config file change, but I don't see anything at a  
glance.
