The Encoding key is now deprecated by the FreeDesktop standard and all
strings are required to be encoded in UTF-8. This desktop entry
explicitly specified an Encoding of UTF-8, which is harmless but no
longer necessary. See

for details. Patch from Modestas Vainius. See issue #9659.
This converts the CMake license to a pure 3-clause OSI-approved BSD
License. We drop the previous license clause requiring modified
versions to be plainly marked. We also update the CMake copyright to
cover the full development time range.
CMake 2.4 generates old-style cmake_install.cmake code including calls
to the file(INSTALL) command with the COMPONENTS argument. We need to
set CMAKE_INSTALL_SELF_2_4 for the whole install tree to prevent the
command from complaining in this special case. Previously this was
needed only in the QtDialog directory, but now it is needed in the
entire tree.
This moves the version numbers into an isolated configured header so
that not all of CMake needs to rebuild when the version changes.
Previously we had spaces, dashes and/or the word 'patch' randomly chosen
before the patch number. Now we always report version numbers in the
traditional format "<major>.<minor>.<patch>[-rc<rc>]".
We still use odd minor numbers for development versions. Now we also
use the CCYYMMDD date as the patch number of development versions, thus
allowing tests for exact CMake versions.
When CMake 2.4 generates the build tree for CMake itself it asks the
built CMake to install itself using the rules that 2.4 generated. Since
the install rules use undocumented commands that are not compatible from
2.4 to 2.6 we need a special case to avoid failure. This sets a special
indicator variable in the install rules that enables a compatibility
hack to support the old install rule format.
For bug #7191.
Improvements to the dialog that sets up the first configure.
Fixing the large size of it by breaking it up into a wizard.
Also incorporated suggestions from bug report.
the generator on the first configure. It either ask for a toolchain file
or asks for all the information a toolchain file might contain.
Also added option for setting non-default compilers if not cross compiling.
Fixes#6849.
Also a bit of code cleanup and re-organizing.
