Thank you all for the help.  Removing old git installations, and symlinks to 
them, fixes the problem of Xcode’s Source Control getting stuck in “Scanning 
for working copies…”.


OF ACADEMIC INTEREST…

I’m not sure if git is installed with OS X or Xcode.  There seems to be a git 
in /usr/bin/ which is protected by System Integrity Protection (SIP).

When I updated this morning from Xcode 7.1 (Beta) to Xcode 7.1.1 (App Store), 
those file sizes and modification times did not change.  However, the response 
from
    git version
*and*
    /usr/bin/git version
*both* changed from 
    git version 2.4.7 (Apple Git-59)
to 
    git version 2.4.9 (Apple Git-60)

But I don’t need to know the answer to this.
