I am trying to merge master into my feature branch, and presented with this error. I have looked around the internet, and also tried to debug this issue myself including playing around with the .pbxproj file's conflicts (which showed none). All paths I have taken has not been fruitful. I am kindly asking for any direction I should take (i.e. which files to look at). Thank you in advance.
The project ‘project’ is damaged and cannot be opened due to a parse error. Examine the project file for invalid edits... control conflicts

If you're using git to merge branches, this can happen when there are conflicts that aren't properly resolved. Open the .pbxproj and delete any conflict markers:
<<<<<<<
=======
>>>>>>>
In my case it is because of a "\" in path attribute. I changed it to "/" and I used "plutil -lint project.pbxproj" to find the line number on which error was.
