Workaround to submit app to app store with Xcode 7

When trying to submit an app compiled with Xcode 7 to iTunes Connect for review, I get an error message

Apps and app updates submitted to the App Store must be built with Xcode 5.1.1 or later, and iOS 7 SDK.

enter image description here

Is there any workaround to this? I've already updated all of my code to Swift 2.0, and I would like to not have to convert it all back to Swift 1.2 to upload it.

Setting the Deployment Target to iOS 8.0 doesn't work, either

enter image description here

Are there any ways that I can compile the Swift 2.0 code in a way that would allow me to upload it to iTunes Connect (maybe something in the Build Settings), or do I have to convert all of the code back to Swift 1.2?

Just a few days ago Apple started accepting apps that are built with Xcode 7 GM. Here is a reference from Apple themselves https://developer.apple.com/news/

I ran into a lot of build errors with iOS 9 as there are some breaking changes and new settings for the latest devices. I combined all the errors and their fixes on my blog post. It is targeted at Ionic users, but a lot of the issues are general and any iOS developer could encounter them. http://blog.tylerbuchea.com/ios9-and-ionic-build-warnings/

Apple doesn't allow submitting anything using beta stage tools. They check all submissions so there is no reasonable way to submit anything done with Swift 2.0. Your only options are either to wait until Xcode 7 is officially out or convert to Swift 1.2.
