Linux touch is a command-line utility used to create a file or update the timestamp of an existing file or directory. It is a part of the GNU Core Utilities package which is installed on most Linux systems. The touch command is used to create empty files, update the timestamp of existing files, and to create or modify files without actually modifying the contents of the file.
