Through use of libarchive internally we support .zip files as well as
.tar format. The ExternalProject module makes use of this feature.
Document support officially.
Expose the internal system information API to the CMake language. For
example, it is useful to see how much memory the system has available to
estimate an upper limit of tests that can run in parallel.
Document the logic that parses for backward compatibility the old
variables that were used to control add_jar prior to named argument
support. In particular, document that the reason this logic exists is
for backward compatibility, and that new features do not need to add to
it.
This fixes#14210. In 2.8.10 CMakeDetermineCompiler.cmake was
modified (or added), and now the _INIT variable must not
be set to a list anymore, before it worked.

Each call to AddDefinition has overhead for variable watches and such.
Avoid extra calls when not needed.
This decreases the configure time for ParaView by 10 seconds on my
machine. Without the change about 1,000,000 set-to-empty calls were
being made. After the change it drops to about 100,000.
The SHA512_Update implementation accesses input data via 64-bit
integers. This requires alignment of the input buffer on some
architectures. Align our stack-allocated buffer for file content to
satisfy this requirement.
Even with the NMake Makefiles generator, it is not able to properly
clean up after the test.

Internal cmake changing into directory: C:/Dashboards/My Tests/CMake-nmake10-x64-continuous/Tests/WarnUnusedCliUnused
Error: cmake execution failed
CMake Error: Error: generator : NMake Makefiles

Either remove the CMakeCache.txt file or choose a different binary directory.
Describe explicitly the scope in which enable_language must be
invoked to handle all direct and indirect uses of a language.
While at it, re-word documentation of the OPTIONAL keyword to
avoid confusion over its partial implementation.
Extend the signature
try_compile(RESULT_VAR <bindir> <srcfile> ...)
to allow multiple sources as
try_compile(RESULT_VAR <bindir> SOURCES <srcfile>... ...)
Process the sources to generate a CMakeLists.txt that enables all needed
languages.
Teach the TryCompile test to try cases with two sources of the same
language and of mixed languages. Teach RunCMake.try_compile to cover
error cases for the signature.
