This property allow to specify a specific Visual Studio tool for a
source file overriding the default tool behavior. For example, a
`.resw` file being processed as a `PriResource` file. This has the
advantage of being able to teach CMake to process new file types without
code modifications.
Even in relatively small projects using `--trace` (and `--trace-expand`)
may produce a lot of output. When developing a custom module usually
one is interested in output of only a few particular modules.
Add a `--trace-source=<file>` option to enable tracing only a subset of
source files. The final output would be only from requested modules,
ignoring anything else not matched to given filename(s).
Create a LINK_WHAT_YOU_USE target property and corresponding
CMAKE_LINK_WHAT_YOU_USE variable to enable this behavior.
Extend link commands by running `ldd -u -r` to detect shared
libraries that are linked but not needed.
Add a ``FIND_LIBRARY_USE_LIB32_PATHS`` global property analogous to the
``FIND_LIBRARY_USE_LIB64_PATHS`` property. This helps find commands on
multilib systems that use ``lib32`` directories and either do not have
``lib`` symlinks or point ``lib`` to ``lib64``.

d256ba07 try_compile: Optionally forward custom platform variables to test project
fb4791b3 cmCoreTryCompile: Refactor forwarding of variables to test project
Add a `CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE_PLATFORM_VARIABLES` variable to specify a list
of custom variables to be forwarded to a `try_compile` test project.
This will be useful for platform information modules or toolchain files
to forward some platform-specific set of variables from the host project
(perhaps set in its cache) to the test project so that it can build the
same way.
c1340827 Add a variable to specify language-wide system include directories
44199097 cmMakefile: Optimize AddSystemIncludeDirectories for empty set
a896043b GHS: Compute include directories consistently with other generators
Create a `CMAKE_<LANG>_STANDARD_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES` variable to specify
system include directories for for `<LANG>` compiler command lines.
This plays a role for include directories as the existing
`CMAKE_<LANG>_STANDARD_LIBRARIES` variable does for link libraries.
Prevent accidental inter component dependency setting
since this is a breaking feature in situations where
another CPack module is already using the feature.
It should be enabled if desired since it can cause
issues when upgrading only one of the components
for e.g. configuration instead of all the components
at once.
This patch preserves backward compatibility of
deb package names with previous CMake versions
but similarly to CPack/RPM allows to change
package name format and supports DEB-DEFAULT
setting that produces proper Debian package names.

Even though the `file(GLOB)` documentation specifically warns against
using it to collect a list of source files, projects often do it anyway.
Since it uses `readdir()`, the list of files will be unsorted.
This list is often passed directly to add_executable / add_library.
Linking binaries with an unsorted list will make it unreproducible,
which means that the produced binary will differ depending on the
unpredictable `readdir()` order.
To solve those reproducibility issues in a lot of programs (which don't
explicitly `list(SORT)` the list manually), sort the resulting list of
the `file(GLOB)` command.
A more detailed rationale about reproducible builds is available
[here](https://reproducible-builds.org/).
Add a `CMAKE_NINJA_OUTPUT_PATH_PREFIX` variable. When it is set, CMake
generates a `build.ninja` file suitable for embedding into another ninja
project potentially generated by an alien generator.
Packagers may now set their own rpm package
file names or request that rpmbuild tool
chooses one for them. It also supports handing
of situations where one spec file may produce
multiple rpm packages.
The `--build` mode was confusingly documented among other options,
falsely implying that it can be used anywhere on the command line.
Move the documentation to a dedicated section and clarify its usage
as s separate command line mode.
Since commit v3.3.0-rc1~430^2 (Teach find_(library|file|path) to get
prefixes from PATH, 2015-02-18) we search in <prefix>/include and
<prefix>/lib directories for prefixes with bin directories in the PATH
environment variable. The motivation was to support MSYS, MinGW and
similar Windows platforms in their default environments automatically.
At the time this behavior was thought to be worthwhile in general.

Teach the `add_custom_command` and `add_custom_target' commands to
substitute argv0 with the crosscompiling emulator if it is a target with
the `CROSSCOMPILING_EMULATOR` property set.
In Sphinx output formats that print the toctree the policy numbers in
links from the cmake-policies(7) manual are not descriptive. Convert
the toctree entries to cross-reference syntax and add the summary of
each policy. For now simply duplicate the policy summary line. We
already maintain copies in `cmPolicies.h` and `Help/policy/*.rst` docs.

Create a <LANG>_CLANG_TIDY target property (initialized by a
CMAKE_<LANG>_CLANG_TIDY variable) to specify a clang-tidy command line
to be run along with the compiler.
In the `try_compile` source file signature we propagate the caller's
value of `CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS` into the test project. Extend this to
propagate `CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS_<CONFIG>` too instead of always using the
default value in the test project. This will be useful, for example, to
allow the MSVC runtime library to be changed (e.g. `-MDd` => `-MTd`).

06b310b5 cmCTestGIT: add an option to initialize submodules on update
56c1ea40 cmCTestGIT: fix git version references
Currently, CTest will not initialize any submodules within the already
checked out source tree. Add an option to do so. The use case for not
doing so is that some submodules may not be necessary for the current
test and keeping network usage down may be important.
Symbolic links that point to external
location no longer cause cmake to fail
with string out of bounds error but
are instead packaged as non relocatable
symlinks and print out a warning message.
RPM supports setting of default user, group,
file and directory permissions that will be
applied for files in package unless specified
