Hi Eike and Arjen Thanks for your answers. Sorry for my trivial question!
I would like to ask a question about best practice. I think that, initially, we would use CMake only on Linux, to replace our hardcoded of gnu makefiles (we don't use autotools). So only one platform is involved. I am wondering what to put under version control. Would it be best to version control only CMakeLists.txt and let each developer separately run CMake and then make? Or should the modifier of CMakeLists.txt be responsible for running CMake and check-in the generated Makefile, so that the user only needs to update his (svn) working copy and run make?
