I assume you are adding the .cc file to some list in a make file. 
Touching the make file is probably what triggers a recall of the main 
subdirectory (probably not the whole program, but main is where most of 
the code is so nearly the whole program).

You could cheat and add the .cc file to the make file, then after saving 
roll back the date of the make file to where it was before editing the file.
