You have everything working and even two ideas to improve your situation. Where's the need to answer you?

Because I thought that there was a better way, but perhaps there isn't. Your response helps.


... The problem is that the script is executed every single time I build. I really only want to copy file(s) when the source is more recent than the destination.

"rsync" is a tool made for such situations.

I just glanced at the man page for rsync. It looks very useful for my situation. I'll keep it in mind for when I try to write a smarter shell script. It'd be nice to see an example of rsync in an Xcode shell script target or build phase (if anyone has one).


For now, I have what I need. :-)

Have fun,
Markus
