Any suggestions on what to do?

You know what? I wouldn’t.
Xcode’s “version control” interface is built to be agnostic about which back-end it’s using, SVN or git. It’s built for the lowest common denominator of shared features. As a result, most of the power of git is explicitly not supported within Xcode itself.
I quit using Xcode’s version control completely when I realized this. I like Tower 2 for a gorgeous and Mac-ish git GUI, and the command line for most of my heavy lifting.
