Description

We're checking in our Pods directory into source control. This means that the pod install command is only ever run, if a developer wants to install a new dependency.

Reading through the CocoaPods part of the XcodeGen-docs, it seems that there isn't a good solution for this? I guess, if CocoaPods allowed for separating downloading deps from integrating deps, it should be possible to just integrate the pods after generating the project.
