The improved text gives very clear information when either the CMakeLists.txt or CTestConfig.cmake file is missing. Hopefully, it makes it easier for those poor future souls who encounter these messages to solve their problems quickly.
If APPEND is given to ctest_start, it will read the tag from the current existing Testing/TAG file rather than creating a new one based on the current time stamp. This allows a developer to run several dashboard scripts in a row, all of which will share the same tag/stamp/buildid when they finally get submitted to CDash. Now you can split the running of build phases and test phases for the same dashboard row into multiple scripts.
Before this commit, the value of PATH at cmake time was put into the eclipse
project file. The problem with this is that this will be lost the first time
cmake is rerun from an build inside eclipse which was started without the
environment externally already set.
This patch now:
-adds the env.var to the cache if it is not already in the cache
-reuses the variable from the cache if it is in the cache, but not in the env.
-uses the variable from the cache if it contains the whole content of the
current env.var (e.g. if it is the full PATH plus the MSVC dirs)
Also store INTEL_LICENSE_FILE in the project file if an Intel compiler is used.

The Eclipse and KDevelop generators set the VERBOSE environment variable to
TRUE in the project files, because they must be able to "see" the full
command lines and errors, otherwise they can't parse the errors. But the
VERBOSE env.var. also enables cmakes own verbose output, which can be quite
long. This commit introduces an environment variable CMAKE_NO_VERBOSE, which
when set disables cmake's verbose output also when VERBOSE is set. This
env.var is now set by both the Eclipse and the KDevelop generators.

Now the case that both the release- and the debug-version of a library is
handled first, because otherwise we always ran into this branch, since the
debug-only and the release-only branch also set both variables.

Previously we produced commit times formatted like
1261403774 -0500
which is what the Git plumbing prints. Now we use a human-readable
format like
2009-12-21 15:28:06 -0500
which is still easy to machine-parse.
The commit "Make CTestTestTimeout time configurable" added a CMake cache
variable CTestTestTimeout_TIME to configure the length of the timeout
used by the inner CTestTestTimeout test. The reason was to allow users
on slow machines to give this test some extra time without extending the
timeout for everyone. However, Cygwin CMake seems to load slowly enough
that it is worth a longer default timeout for that platform.
The commit "Submit Subversion directory path in Update.xml" added the
element <SVNPath>...</SVNPath> to Update.xml for Subversion work trees.
This commit teaches the CTest.UpdateSVN test to verify the presence of
the element.
Previously we escaped quotes in <UpdateCommand>...</UpdateCommand>
values using '"'. This is not necessary because the value is in
xml CDATA and not an xml attribute.
We modify the signature of _HDF5_parse_compile_line to pass the command
line variable name rather than the command line itself. Otherwise the
CMake language MACRO implementation tries to parse the command line as
CMake syntax, which does not like backslashes.
A Subversion revision is unique across the entire repository, but work
trees typically correspond only to a subdirectory below the root path.
In order to specify the version of the source code that was tested,
CTest now submits a <SVNPath> element in Update.xml that specifies the
directory of the repository that corresponds to the work tree. In
combination with the revision number this uniquely specifies the tested
source. See issue #7541.
We teach CTest to report in a <Revision> element the revision of the
source tree that was tested. This makes sense for all modern VCS tools
because they version the whole tree. We simply omit this element for
CVS because it only versions files. See issue #7541.
Our new CHECK_TYPE_SIZE macro produces a SIZEOF_<type>_CODE value for
use in configured headers to get architecture-aware type size results.
In this commit we teach cmcurl to use the SIZEOF_<type>_CODE value to
get proper configured type sizes in OS X Universal Binaries.
