If you want to use Xcode you can add libuv as a Git submodule (git submodule add https://github.com/libuv/libuv Externals/libuv) and use GYP to generate an xcodeproj for libuv (as explained in libuv's README) and add this xcodeproj to your main Xcode project.
It can be automated (for easy updating) with a simple shell script (assumes you put the libuv submodule in Externals/libuv, but can be changed):
git submodule update --init
git clone https://chromium.googlesource.com/external/gyp.git Externals/libuv/build/gyp
Externals/libuv/gyp_uv.py -f xcode
Then you'll be able to add libuv as a dependency and to the libraries to link your target to:
The last thing to do is to tell Xcode where are libuv's headers:
