Brad King 1d22ee67aa Help: target_include_directories does not allow target names
Since commit v2.8.11~227^2~1 (Don't allow targets args in the new target
commands, 2013-01-29) the target_include_directories command does not
support target names on the right hand side, but that commit forgot to
remove it from the docs.  It was never released with such support.
Update the command documentation now.

Peter Collingbourne fe5d6e8c0f Add USES_TERMINAL option for custom commands
Teach the add_custom_command and add_custom_target commands a new
USES_TERMINAL option.  Use it to tell the generator to give the command
direct access to the terminal if possible.

Domen Vrankar 474bbb9dbc string: Tolerate SUBSTRING length exceeding end index
string SUBSTRING command now ignores length if it points
past end of string and uses end of string instead.
String SUBSTRING tests now cover more corner cases.

Brad King 352cbb6e36 Help: Reference add_compile_options from add_definitions (#15225)
When we explain in add_definitions documentation that it is intended
only for preprocessor definitions, link to add_compile_options for
adding other flags.  Also explicitly mention that the order of
add_definitions calls with respect to target creation does not matter.
This differs from the behavior now explicitly stated in the
documentation of add_compile_options.

Brad King a9f8c50aa2 Help: Clarify add_compile_options documentation (#15225)

to the COMPILE_OPTIONS directory propert documentation.  Update the
latter to explain that it is used to initialize the corresponding target
property when a target is created.

treated as PRE_LINK by non-VS generators will now imply this restriction
for PRE_BUILD too.

Loosen this restriction on OBJECT libraries to allow source files of any

projects so long as they would not affect linking of a normal library.
Update the rejection message to be more specific about the looser
restriction.

Extend the ObjectLibrary test to cover a ".cmake" file generated by a
custom command in an OBJECT library.

Brad King d19b64d671 install(DIRECTORY): Add MESSAGE_NEVER option to avoid output (#13761)
Installing large directories, e.g., the output of a doxygen run, prints
one line per file resulting in too much noise in the build output.  Add
an option to the install(DIRECTORY) command to not print anything upon
make install.

Extend the RunCMake.install test with cases covering MESSAGE_NEVER
behavior of the install(DIRECTORY) command.

Brad King c9568de52c install: Add CMAKE_INSTALL_MESSAGE variable (#13761)
Create a variable to allow users to control which installation
messages are printed.  In particular, provide a "LAZY" setting
that prints "Installing" messages but not "Up-to-date" messages.
This is desirable for incremental re-installations.

Explain how to use $<BUILD_INTERFACE> and $<INSTALL_INTERFACE> directly
in the documentation of the target_include_directories command and
INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES target property.  Otherwise readers need
to notice the link to the cmake-buildsystem(7) manual and find the
example in that to understand the need for these expressions.

Also fix the explanation in cmake-buildsystem(7) to not claim that
relative paths may be used inside a BUILD_INTERFACE expression.
