tell cmake to be quiet

Question

Is there a variable I can use in cmake to make it act like it was passed the -q option? It would be nice because I have a very modular build that gets messy with cmakes outp

Answer 1

As of cmake 3.1, setting CMAKE_INSTALL_MESSAGE is also very useful. For example, set(CMAKE_INSTALL_MESSAGE LAZY) will skip the -- Up-to-date: messages.
