The xcode project has tons of scheme. My question is: which scheme do I use to be able to build gnucash, place a break point in any given file and start

The short answer is that you want the ALL_BUILD scheme.

For more info look for the section "Using Xcode on OS X" in gnucash/cmake/README_CMAKE.txt in the source tree. I've used XCode with GnuCash quite a lot and it works fine. I don't, however, use jhbuild to build it. Instead I install all the dependencies using MacPorts and then run cmake and either XCode or scodebuilt to build it. This may be relevant since the result is a traditional out-of-source build tree not a MacOS package. This may or may not matter.

It's much faster, by the way, to let XCode do the build than using xcodebuild. The latter seems to single-thread the build while XCode does parallel builds. At least that's what it seems like, I haven't really verified that.
