title: iOS appstore submission using xcode command line tools
body: <p>I have come across various articles explaining how you can build and archive an iOS application using the command line tools packaged with xcode.</p>
  
  <p>Is it possible to use the tools to validate and distribute the application to the appstore?</p>
  
  <p>Edit following comment: I am looking to avoid using the GUI as I have multiple similar apps, so I'm looking to script the update process to make it faster (less manual).</p>
