Thanks to Sherm, Jean-Daniel and Chris for replies. (Other
configurations were not an issue, it had only been compiled as Debug.
No source files had been renamed, and in any case they are much smaller
than the ~6MB I am concerned about.) Chris said:
Your Project Index is by default stored in the project build folder,
and it would be somewhat wasteful to delete and re-create it on every
clean.
I guess it depends on how often you clean, and how clean you want things
to be. One of the reasons to clean of course is that something got out
of sync somehow. This could happen in a project index just like it can
in build dependencies. More to the point, the original idea of "make
clean" was to get rid of ALL derived build products and cached results,
leaving only the original source. It seems wrong to me that Xcode does
not provide a simple way to do this. I would be happy if [Clean All
Targets] had more checkboxes ("clean all configurations", "clean all
*.pbx* files" or "remove Build Directory") but for Xcode to add ~6MB to
my tiny source tree then not provide a simple way to get rid of it seems
impolite at best.
