I'm using xcodebuild to compile my iPhone app from the command line. Is there a way to pass in some sort of option to set the provisioning profile? There seems to be not very much information about xcodebuild in general.

Actually, you should be able to just add it to the XCode command line setting.

xcodebuild [whatever other options you have] PROVISIONING_PROFILE="[Your profile Unique ID here]"

Build Settings from the command line are supposed to override everything, so this should win out over anything defined in the project or target.
