@shriramk it also, presents me with a button that says "Open in Emacs", which when I press it, downloads XCode, and thereafter always opens files in XCode. My colleague has the same button. It opens Goland.
There's a menu at the side of the button. It presents alternatives: Emacs or "Open in folder". Never XCode, never Goland.
Go figure.
