The setting of a policy is confined in some cases to not propagate to the

parent scope. For example, if the files read by the :command:`include` command

or the :command:`find_package` command contain a use of :command:`cmake_policy`,
|

that policy setting will not affect the caller by default. Both commands accept
|

an optional ``NO_POLICY_SCOPE`` keyword to control this behavior.
