I have exposed build-time information to an application in the past. The
approach I chose leveraged a Run Script build phase that overwrote the contents
of a plist or a header file (I’ve used both). I created the initial file and
added it to git. Then, I ended up assuming that changes to the plist or header
file were negligible from the perspective of source control with:
git update-index --assume-unchanged
