Add sections to the cmake-buildsystem(7) manual and cross-reference
them with relevant variables and target properties. This avoids
duplicating the information and allows it to be more detailed.
The documentation of this variable in the CTest module is outdated
and has been superseded by the ctest(1) manual. In particular, the
latter mentions that it works with the Ninja generator as well as
makefile generators. Remove the documentation from the CTest module
and replace it with a link to the main variable documentation (which
already references the ctest(1) manual).

051d8be1 cmLocalGenerator: Constify some cmTarget and cmGeneratorTarget arguments
Green Hills MULTI is an IDE for embedded real-time systems. The IDE's
product page can be found here:
http://www.ghs.com/products/MULTI_IDE.html
It supports cross compiling on ARM, Intel x86, and other architectures
with various operating systems. The IDE exists on Linux and Windows
host systems, but CMake will currently only generate the project files
on Windows host systems.
The GITUpdateCustom and P4UpdateCustom options take only one command
line with all arguments as a ;-list, not a ;-list of multiple command
lines. Fix the incorrect documentation originally added by commit
v3.1.0-rc1~463^2 (Help: Document ctest dashboard client usage,
2014-05-30).
882f48e5 Link libraries by full path even in implicit directories
318cd370 Help: Add link target for Find Modules section of cmake-developer.7
1535dcd8 Tests: Teach RunCMake to optionally merge command output to stdout
When CMP0003 was first introduced we wanted to link all libraries by
full path. However, some projects had problems on platforms where
find_library would find /usr/lib/libfoo.so when the project really
wanted to link to /usr/lib/<arch>/libfoo.so and had been working by
accident because pre-CMP0003 behavior used -lfoo to link.
We first tried to address that in commit v2.6.0~440 (Teach find_library
to avoid returning library paths in system directories, 2008-01-23) by
returning just "foo" for libraries in implicit link directories. This
caused problems for projects expecting find_library to always return a
full path. We ended up using the solution in commit v2.6.0~366 (...
switch library paths found in implicit link directories to use -l,
2008-01-31). However, the special case for libraries in implicit link
directories has also proven problematic and confusing.
Introduce policy CMP0060 to switch to linking all libraries by full path
even if they are in implicit link directories. Explain in the policy
documentation the factors that led to the original approach and now to
this approach.
Extend sentences in other documentation linking to this manual to
say that it has a list of supported compilers.

subsequent patches to run exectuables created for the target system when
crosscompiling. The property is initialized by the

ba9b9d79 Help: Fix syntax in non-relocatable usage requirements example
Many places in our documentation refer to "Makefile Generators" or
"Visual Studio" generators as a group of generators. Give such
places a linkable document section to reference since they cannot
cross-reference the individual generators in the groups.
Explain at the beginning of the section the requirements for a package
to be relocatable to justify the rest of the section content.
Generalize example to use fictional package names instead of real ones,
especially because FindBoost provides no alternative yet. Reword the
discussion to represent the preferred approach as "ideal" but also
suggest workarounds when find modules do not provide the imported
targets.
Re-organize the content added to the cmake-packages(7) manual by
* commit v3.0.0-rc1~184^2 (Help: Document export(EXPORT) in the
cmake-packages manual, 2013-12-23),
* commit v3.0.0-rc1~154^2~1 (Help: Add notes about relocatability
of config-file packages, 2014-01-07), and
* commit v3.2.0-rc1~345^2 (Help: Warn that paths should not be used
in INTERFACE_ build properties, 2014-11-22).
These commits broke the natural flow of the original manual and made
wording after the new content make less sense. Move the content into
new subsections to restore the flow of the original manual and to
make explicitly the purpose of the new content.
Shorten the relocatable usage requirement "warnings". Refer to the
new cmake-packages(7) manual subsection to reduce duplication. Also
clarify the distinction between paths to library dependencies and
paths to their header files.
Add policy CMP0059 to cover this change. The property has been
deprecated since CMake 2.4 anyway.
This will help clean up cmMakefile -- the DefineFlagsOrig member should
not need to exist.

Add policy CMP0058 to avoid generating 'phony' ninja rules for unknown
custom command dependencies. This requires projects to specify their
custom command byproducts explicitly. With this requirement we no
longer have to assume that unknown custom command dependencies are
generated and can instead simply assume they are source files expected
to exist when the build starts. This is particularly important in
in-source builds. It is also helpful for out-of-source builds to allow
Ninja to diagnose missing files before running custom command rules that
depend on them.
