Only the variable's own docs stated this but the variable isn't very discoverable without it being mentioned in the command's docs as well. --- Help/command/cmake_minimum_required.rst | 3 +++ 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+) diff --git a/Help/command/cmake_minimum_required.rst b/Help/command/cmake_minimum_required.rst index e6ebcf0..f3326b8 100644 --- a/Help/command/cmake_minimum_required.rst +++ b/Help/command/cmake_minimum_required.rst @@ -22,6 +22,9 @@ dots will be seen as version component separators, resulting in the ``...`` part being ignored and preserving the pre-3.12 behavior of basing policies on ````. +This command will set the value of the +:variable:`CMAKE_MINIMUM_REQUIRED_VERSION` variable to ````. + The ``FATAL_ERROR`` option is accepted but ignored by CMake 2.6 and higher.
