I did not use an out of source build, so that of course would
simplify things, but I still think that a command like:
cmake erase
Would be convenient to clear all cmake generated files and roll-back
to the scenario *before* 'cmake .' Yes, I can remove files manually
but the user is not supposed to know exactly which files cmake
generates. Different versions might change generated files or add
hidden files.

I am going to assume then that you DID in fact use an out of source
build for your project. Assuming that build directory is called
"Build" the command is:
rm -rf Build/ (Linux/Unix/OS X)
Use Windows Explorer to delete the entire build tree on Windows.
Those are the commands.
Granted they are not the most obvious but they do work. If you have
suggestions let's hear them..

With that said CMakeCache.txt is the first obvious choice for
deletion. Next comes CMakeFiles and CMakeTemp. Not sure about
anything else.
Also, CMakeLists.txt is the _project_ file. Deleting this file is
the same as deleting the .sln on windows, the xcode project file
on OS X or the main Makefile on Linux/Unix. Are you sure you
really want to remove CMakeLists.txt file?
No you're right, the CMakeLists.txt is the only file I need to
keep. In facts I store that under source control.
I think it would be useful to have a command to clobber the whole
cmake hierarchy for when you need to prepare a distribution,
change the compiler settings or clear some conflicts in the build
tree. It does happen, especially during the project initial setup.

I was wondering if there is a standard command to clear all
cmake files, including CMakeLists.txt, CMakeCache.txt, the
CMakeFiles directory and cmake_install.cmake?
