Is there a way to resubmit my iPhone IPA file without recompiling or using Xcode?

We created an iPhone app and provided a deployment app. In Xcode, we used the build and archive tool to create an IPA file that you can use for installation. When new devices are added to the profile, we would like to re-provide the IPA without recompiling or re-exporting the application from Xcode.

Is there any way to do this?

If you look at the detail tabs in the Xcode build results window after building Ad Hoc, you will notice that the last few steps include starting the ProcessProductPackaging and CodeSign utilities.

If you copy these command lines (and intermediate and subsequent steps, if any), you can manually run these commands (or from a shell script) by replacing the new mobileprovision file in the appropriate place to create an updated ipa file without recompiling.
