The CopyFileIfDifferent, CopyFileAlways, CopyAFile and CopyADirectory
methods should always copy permissions. The special cases in which a
caller would pass copyPermissions=false should be handled at the call
site. The parameter needlessly complicates the interface and semantics
of these methods.
Use it from ExternalProject and the ExternalProject test's
CMakeLists file rather than having duplicate find_program calls.
Add logic so that we do not try to use *.cmd variants of git
programs when using the MSYS Makefiles generator. Should fix
the last remaining dashboard issue with the new ExternalProject
git support additions.
Also, correct minor problem regarding placement of the local git
repo during test execution. On clean builds, it was being placed
incorrectly because of the ../.. relative reference. Use an absolute
path to place the local git repo in the proper directory, and only
use the relative reference when referring to it.
If there is a .bat or .cmd file used as a custom command
then the Borland Makefiles generator (specifically) requires
using the "call " syntax before the name of the .bat or .cmd
file. This fix applies to all Makefile based generators where
WindowsShell is true.
On Windows 7 the file size reported by 'stat' on a new file sometimes
reports zero even though the real size is correct. This causes our
CopyFileAlways method to falsely detect copy failure. Work around the
problem by trusting the state of ofstream after writing the file.
Commit 0fafdb7e (Do not copy permissions of files when making the copy
in an install rule, 2008-12-18) added special behavior to KWSys file
copy methods for this special case. Use a local solution to avoid use
of the special behavior so it can be removed later.
Double quote executable names that may have spaces in them.
Do not run the new git portions of the test on machines that
have git < version 1.6.5 on them.
Add archives of these file types and add to the test
cases covered in the ExternalProject test.
Also add an "Example" directory in the Tests/ExternalProject
directory containing the canonical simplest example of
ExternalProject usage.

Also, fix complaint that DOWNLOAD_COMMAND cannot contain arguments
consisting entirely of upper case letters. It validly does when,
for example, you construct a custom cvs command line and the module
name is all upper case, like VTK.
Map to the platform and compiler information for GNU because the
compilers are command-line compatible for common operations. Later we
can add Clang-specific features as necessary. We honor the preferred
capitalization is "Clang", not the common mis-spelling "CLang".
Merge the release branch into master to get its version number, tags,
and ChangeLog. Revert the version on master from 2.9 back to 2.8.
Future releases will be prepared directly in master.
This is the starting point for a branchy workflow based on one described
by the "git help workflows" man page. New development will be done on
local topic branches. Topics will be published by merging them into one
of the integration branches:
maint = Maintenance of previous release
master = Preparation of future release
next = Development of features ("next" to be merged into master)
In order to bootstrap the topic-based workflow from here, all changes in
master since the 2.8 release branch started will either be included in
the next release or reverted and recreated on a topic branch.
