之前10.7的系统上执行过cocoapods没有问题。如今系统版本号升级到了10.9，尝试使用cocoapods遇到问题，报告了类似以下的错误：Psych::SyntaxError - (/Users/psteinacher/.cocoapods/repos/master/CocoaPods-version.yml): mapping values are not allowed in this context at line 3 column 4/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/2.0/usr/lib/ruby/2.0.0/psych.rb:205:in `parse'/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/2.0/usr/lib/ruby/2.0.0/psych.rb:205:in `parse_stream'/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/2.0/usr/lib/ruby/2.0.0/psych.rb:153:in `parse'/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/2.0/usr/lib/ruby/2.0.0/psych.rb:129:in `load'/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/2.0/usr/lib/ruby/2.0.0/psych.rb:299:in `block in load_file'/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/2.0/usr/lib/ruby/2.0.0/psych.rb:299:in `open'/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/2.0/usr/lib/ruby/2.0.0/psych.rb:299:in `load_file'/Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0/gems/cocoapods-0.28.0/lib/cocoapods/sources_manager.rb:248:in `version_information'/Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0/gems/cocoapods-0.28.0/lib/cocoapods/sources_manager.rb:209:in `repo_compatible?'/Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0/gems/cocoapods-0.28.0/lib/cocoapods/sources_manager.rb:268:in `master_repo_functional?'/Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0/gems/cocoapods-0.28.0/lib/cocoapods/command.rb:40:in `parse'/Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0/gems/claide-0.4.0/lib/claide/command.rb:179:in `parse'/Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0/gems/cocoapods-0.28.0/lib/cocoapods/command.rb:39:in `parse'/Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0/gems/claide-0.4.0/lib/claide/command.rb:211:in `run'/Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0/gems/cocoapods-0.28.0/lib/cocoapods/command.rb:52:in `run'/Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0/gems/cocoapods-0.28.0/bin/pod:24:in `'经过多方尝试，发现运行例如以下的命令能够解决这个问题：
$ sudo rm -fr ~/.cocoapods/repos/master$ pod setup最后推荐一个xcode插件，能够非常方便的使用cocoapods。CocoaPods for Xcode非常方便的Xcode pods插件。能够非常方便的在Xcode通过pods安装各种objective-c第三方库，省去曾经还要手动去跑pods命令行的麻烦；此外，还支持通过cocoaDocs来安装库文档。唯一的遗憾是，它眼下仅仅支持Xcode5，4版本号还用不了。项目地址：https://github.com/kattrali/cocoapods-xcode-pluginEnjoy it!
