How can I use the legacy build system with Xcode 10’s `xcodebuild`?

by

There is an (as of yet undocumented) flag in xcodebuild: -UseModernBuildSystem=<value>. The value can be either 0 or NO to use the legacy (“original”) build system, or 1 or YES to use the new build system.

For example:

xcodebuild -workspace Foo.xcworkspace -scheme Bar -configuration Release -archivePath /path/to/Foo.xcarchive clean archive -UseModernBuildSystem=NO

(-UseNewBuildSystem=<value> seems to work as well; this flags was introduced in Xcode 9 but I suspect UseModernBuildSystem is going to be the “official” flag for this.)
