 Changes made since CMake 3.5 include the following.
 
-* Support was added for the Bruce C Compiler with compiler id ``Bruce``.
+New Features
+============
 
-* The :module:`FindLTTngUST` module was introduced to find the LTTng-UST
-  library.
+Generators
+----------
 
-* :prop_tgt:`AUTOMOC` now diagnoses name collisions when multiple source
-  files in different directories use ``#include <moc_foo.cpp>`` with the
-  same name (because the generated ``moc_foo.cpp`` files would collide).
+* The :generator:`Ninja` generator learned to produce phony targets
+  of the form ``sub/dir/all`` to drive the build of a subdirectory.
+  This is equivalent to ``cd sub/dir; make all`` with
+  :ref:`Makefile Generators`.
+
+* The :generator:`Ninja` generator now includes system header files in build
+  dependencies to ensure correct re-builds when system packages are updated.
+
+* The :generator:`Visual Studio 14 2015` generator learned to support the
+  Clang/C2 toolsets, e.g. with the ``-T v140_clang_3_7`` option.
+  This feature is experimental.
+
+Commands
+--------
+
+* The :command:`add_custom_command` and :command:`add_custom_target` commands
+  learned how to use the :prop_tgt:`CROSSCOMPILING_EMULATOR` executable
+  target property.
+
+* The :command:`install` command learned a new ``EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL`` option
+  to leave installation rules out of the default installation.
+
+* The :command:`list` command gained a ``FILTER`` sub-command to filter
+  list elements by regular expression.
+
+* The :command:`string(TIMESTAMP)` and :command:`file(TIMESTAMP)`
+  commands gained support for the ``%s`` placeholder.  This is
+  the number of seconds since the UNIX Epoch.
+
+* The :command:`try_compile` command source file signature now honors
+  configuration-specific flags (e.g. :variable:`CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS_DEBUG`)
+  in the generated test project.  Previously only the default such flags
+  for the current toolchain were used.
+
+Variables
+---------
+
+* A :variable:`CMAKE_DEPENDS_IN_PROJECT_ONLY` variable was introduced
+  to tell :ref:`Makefile Generators` to limit dependency scanning only
+  to files in the project source and build trees.
+
+* A new :variable:`CMAKE_HOST_SOLARIS` variable was introduced to
+  indicate when CMake is running on an Oracle Solaris host.
+
+* A :variable:`CMAKE_<LANG>_STANDARD_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES` variable was
+  added for use by toolchain files to specify system include directories
+  to be appended to all compiler command lines.
+
+* The :variable:`CMAKE_<LANG>_STANDARD_LIBRARIES` variable is now documented.
+  It is intended for use by toolchain files to specify system libraries to be
+  added to all linker command lines.
+
+* A :variable:`CMAKE_NINJA_OUTPUT_PATH_PREFIX` variable was introduced
+  to tell the :generator:`Ninja` generator to configure the generated
+  ``build.ninja`` file for use as a ``subninja``.
+
+* A :variable:`CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE_PLATFORM_VARIABLES` variable was
+  added for use by toolchain files to specify platform-specific
+  variables that must be propagated by the :command:`try_compile`
+  command into test projects.
+
+* A :variable:`CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE_TARGET_TYPE` variable was added
+  to optionally tell the :command:`try_compile` command to build
+  a static library instead of an executable.  This is useful for
+  cross-compiling toolchains that cannot link binaries without
+  custom flags or scripts.
+
+Properties
+----------
+
+* A :prop_tgt:`DEPLOYMENT_REMOTE_DIRECTORY` target property was introduced
+  to tell the :generator:`Visual Studio 9 2008` and
+  :generator:`Visual Studio 8 2005` generators to generate the "remote
+  directory" for WinCE project deployment and debugger settings.
 
 * A :prop_tgt:`<LANG>_CLANG_TIDY` target property and supporting
   :variable:`CMAKE_<LANG>_CLANG_TIDY` variable were introduced to tell the
   :ref:`Makefile Generators` and the :generator:`Ninja` generator to run
   ``clang-tidy`` along with the compiler for ``C`` and ``CXX`` languages.
 
-* The :ref:`Makefile Generators` learned to optionally limit dependency
-  scanning only to files in the project source and build trees.
-  See the :variable:`CMAKE_DEPENDS_IN_PROJECT_ONLY` variable.
+* A :prop_test:`TIMEOUT_AFTER_MATCH` test property was introduced to
+  optionally tell CTest to enforce a secondary timeout after matching
+  certain output from a test.
 
-* A new :variable:`CMAKE_HOST_SOLARIS` variable was introduced to
-  indicate when CMake is running on an Oracle Solaris host.
+* A :prop_tgt:`VS_CONFIGURATION_TYPE` target property was introduced
+  to specify a custom project file type for :ref:`Visual Studio Generators`
+  supporting VS 2010 and above.
+
+* A :prop_dir:`VS_STARTUP_PROJECT` directory property was introduced
+  to specify for :ref:`Visual Studio Generators` the default startup
+  project for generated solutions (``.sln`` files).
+
+Modules
+-------
 
 * The :module:`CMakePushCheckState` module now pushes/pops/resets the variable
   ``CMAKE_EXTRA_INCLUDE_FILE`` used in :module:`CheckTypeSize`.
 
-* The "CPackDeb" module learned how to handle ``$ORIGIN``
+* The :module:`ExternalProject` module leared the ``GIT_SHALLOW 1``
+  option to perform a shallow clone of a Git repository.
+
+* The :module:`ExternalProject` module learned to initialize Git submodules
+  recursively and also to initialize new submodules on updates.  Use the
+  ``GIT_SUBMODULES`` option to restrict which submodules are initalized and
+  updated.
+
+* The :module:`ExternalProject` module leared the ``DOWNLOAD_NO_EXTRACT 1``
+  argument to skip extracting the file that is downloaded (e.g., for
+  self-extracting shell installers or ``.msi`` files).
+
+* The :module:`ExternalProject` module now uses ``TLS_VERIFY`` when fetching
+  from git repositories.
+
+* The :module:`FindBLAS` and :module:`FindLAPACK` modules learned to
+  support `OpenBLAS <http://www.openblas.net>`__.
+
+* The :module:`FindCUDA` module learned to find the ``cublas_device`` library.
+
+* The :module:`FindGTest` module ``gtest_add_tests`` function now causes
+  CMake to automatically re-run when test sources change so that they
+  can be re-scanned.
+
+* The :module:`FindLTTngUST` module was introduced to find the LTTng-UST
+  library.
+
+* The :module:`FindPkgConfig` module learned to optionally create imported
+  targets for the libraries it has found.
+
+* The :module:`FindProtobuf` module learned to provide a ``Protobuf_VERSION``
+  variable and check the version number requested in a :command:`find_package`
+  call.
+
+* The :module:`InstallRequiredSystemLibraries` module learned a new
+  ``CMAKE_INSTALL_UCRT_LIBRARIES`` option to enable app-local deployment
+  of the Windows Universal CRT libraries with Visual Studio 2015.
