[swift-users] Migrating to Swift 3 using Xcode fails

​I think you can just use Xcode's tool that you upgrade to Swift 3.0.
However, I suggest you do a backup of your project first in case this is
not helpful.

Also, the errors you saw were probably not because of Xcode converted you
code to 2.3 automatically. It wouldn't do that. The real reason is that in
Xcode 6 beta6, a lot of Swift 3.0 accepted proposals were implemented and
released, which made the Swift 3.0 far more different from the previous
3.0.

Xcode's migration tool is closed sourced and is not part of Swift. ​If you
have further questions, I suggest you to ask it in Apple's developer forum.
