Although 2.2 is better, I still get the odd occasion where Xcode
suddenly decides that everything needs to be rebuilt, or doesn't rebuild
the files it should when something in a sub-sub-sub-project is touched,
etc.

Logging these in Radar is quite frustrating, as there's no obvious way
to reproduce them or understand why it's doing what it's doing (I
suspect it's just as frustrating to try and fix :-).


Is there any way to force Xcode to dump out the decisions it makes
during dependency analysis, to capture why something needs to be built
(or not)?

E.g., a list of each source/header file visited, the actual timestamp on
disk vs the timestamp from the last build, the things each file depends
on, which one caused it to be flagged as dirty, etc.

I appreciate that list will get pretty big on larger projects, but I'd
be happy to leave that log rewriting itself in /tmp if it meant I could
log a bug showing exactly where it went wrong.
