+CMAKE_MAXIMUM_RECURSION_DEPTH
+-----------------------------
+
+Maximum recursion depth for CMake scripts. It is intended to be set on the
+command line with ``-DCMAKE_MAXIMUM_RECURSION_DEPTH=<x>``, or within
+``CMakeLists.txt`` by projects that require a large recursion depth. Projects
+that set this variable should provide the user with a way to override it. For
+example:
+
+.. code-block:: cmake
+
+ # About to perform deeply recursive actions
+ if(NOT CMAKE_MAXIMUM_RECURSION_DEPTH)
+ set(CMAKE_MAXIMUM_RECURSION_DEPTH 2000)
+ endif()
+
+If it is not set, or is set to a non-integer value, a sensible default limit is
+used. If the recursion limit is reached, the script terminates immediately with
+a fatal error.
+
+Calling any of the following commands increases the recursion depth:
+
+* :command:`include`
+* :command:`find_package`
+* :command:`add_subdirectory`
+* :command:`try_compile`
+* :command:`ctest_read_custom_files`
+* :command:`ctest_run_script` (unless ``NEW_PROCESS`` is specified)
+* User-defined :command:`function`'s and :command:`macro`'s (note that
+ :command:`function` and :command:`macro` themselves don't increase recursion
+ depth)
+* Reading or writing variables that are being watched by a
+ :command:`variable_watch`
