As far as I understood touch, it should tell the IDE that at least that file needs to be recompiled (and it should be smart enough to notice that files that include the touched file also are dirty). However, in XCode (2.2.1) I can touch as much as I want, but only actually modifying the file will trigger a recompile.
If the Touch command isn't working for you, please file a bug with specific steps of how you're trying to use it. Note that currently Touch only works with source files, not headers, resources, etc. that may be processed by Xcode, but not compiled by gcc. Is there another way to signal to XCode a file needs to be compiled? (and ofcourse I don't really want to be touching files by hand, but XCode often misses dirty files when they are updated from cvs)
It's possible that if your SCM operation is restoring the file to a version that has a timestamp earlier than the last successful build, then that might clear the dirty flag and cause what you're seeing. But step-by-step instructions on how to reproduce would be a great help.
