f5a0f6478e Merge branch 'backport-instrumentation-data-version-minor' into instrumentation-data-version-minor
dcf146c34d instrumentation: Revise Data Version format
df36317176 instrumentation: Revise Data Version format
Acked-by: Kitware Robot <kwrobot@kitware.com>
Merge-request: !12117
Give data version the new format <major>.<minor>, so that
the version can be incremented with the introduction of new
features without bumping the major version.
Add support for loading instrumentation JSON queries of unknown
data versions without error.
Issue: #27833
Add the --source-dir argument to ctest to allow it to perform an initial
configuration step for an empty binary directory when operating in
dashboard client mode.
Preserve backslashes in arguments passed to macros by re-escaping
them before substituting in the macro body, where they will be
parsed again.
Fixes: #19281, #22157, #23641, #25803, #27645, #20891
CMake writes ConfigureCommand and MakeCommand entries into
DartConfiguration.tcl when configuring a project that uses the CTest module.
These values prevented users from being able to use configure/build presets
in dashboard client mode from a pre-configured build directory.
This commit updates ctest_configure() and ctest_build() to ignore
CTEST_CONFIGURE_COMMAND / CTEST_BUILD_COMMAND when a preset is specified.
This allows the requested preset to be honored.
Commit 4f120beea9 (FILE_SET: relax file uniqueness for HEADERS type,
2026-05-10) relaxed the restriction on file uniqueness in file sets, but
did not correctly update all instances of the documentation. Change the
wording to be a bit clearer and update all instances.
When a built-in cache variable is set via `-D <var>=<value>` with no
help text supplied, populate `HELPSTRING` from the built-in
documentation table (sourced from `Help/variable/*.rst` and the
per-language pattern manuals). Project-defined and unknown variables
continue to receive the legacy "No help, variable specified on the
command line." sentinel.
The cache entry's type and value are left untouched: type stays
`UNINITIALIZED` for bare `-D` and an explicit `-D <var>:TYPE=<value>`
is honored as before. The `cmCacheManager::LoadCache` path is not
modified, so reload of existing caches is a fixed point.

Merge-request: !12060
Add `test_prep/<test_name>` convenience targets to the ninja generator
to build dependencies of tests, and `test_prep/all` to build the dependencies
of all tests.
Build dependencies of a test include:
- Executables directly invoked by test `COMMAND`.
- Targets mentioned in generator expressionf os test `COMMAND`.
- Anything explicitly listed with the new `BUILD_DEPENDS` argument of `add_test`.
Issue: #27613
Extend (part of) commit f26e9fcbae (Help: Generate presets JSON schema,
documentation, 2026-04-08) to the `cmake-file-api(7)` page, for each of
the currently applicable object kinds (i.e., only those which have
undergone changes, which is predominantly the codemodel).
This standardization helps to improve both the readability and
maintainability of the document.
The instrumentation docs were unclear about the difference between API
and Data version, with the hierarchy of the table of contents being
particularly misleading.
Rework `cmake-instrumentation` manual and `cmake_instrumentation` command
documentation to be more clear.
