+Repeated calls for the same ``<target>`` will append items in the order called.
+
+Projects should generally avoid using ``PUBLIC`` or ``INTERFACE`` for targets
+that will be :ref:`exported <install(EXPORT)>`, or they should at least use
+the ``$<BUILD_INTERFACE:...>`` generator expression to prevent precompile
+headers from appearing in an installed exported target. Consumers of a target
+should typically be in control of what precompile headers they use, not have
+precompile headers forced on them by the targets being consumed (since
+precompile headers are not typically usage requirements). A notable exception
+to this is where an :ref:`interface library <Interface Libraries>` is created
+to define a commonly used set of precompile headers in one place and then other
+targets link to that interface library privately. In this case, the interface
+library exists specifically to propagate the precompile headers to its
+consumers and the consumer is effectively still in control, since it decides
+whether to link to the interface library or not.
+
+The list of header files is used to generate a header file named
+``cmake_pch.h|xx`` which is used to generate the precompiled header file
+(``.pch``, ``.gch``, ``.pchi``) artifact. The ``cmake_pch.h|xx`` header
+file will be force included (``-include`` for GCC, ``/FI`` for MSVC) to
+all source files, so sources do not need to have ``#include "pch.h"``.
+
+Header file names specified with angle brackets (e.g. ``<unordered_map>``) or
+explicit double quotes (escaped for the :manual:`cmake-language(7)`,
+e.g. ``[["other_header.h"]]``) will be treated as is, and include directories
+must be available for the compiler to find them. Other header file names
+(e.g. ``project_header.h``) are interpreted as being relative to the current

+.. code-block:: cmake
+
+ target_precompile_headers(<target> REUSE_FROM <other_target>)
+
+This form sets the :prop_tgt:`PRECOMPILE_HEADERS_REUSE_FROM` property to

+on ``<other_target>``. CMake will halt with an error if the
