In commit 0f37000304 (try_{compile,run}: add LINKER_LANGUAGE option,
2023-10-12, v3.29.0-rc1~567^2) a release note was accidentally added in
the wrong directory and so was not included in the 3.29 release notes.
In commit 95323c90a1 (file(MAKE_DIRECTORY): Add optional RESULT keyword
to capture failure., 2024-06-16, v3.31.0-rc1~414^2) the release note was
added in the wrong directory so it was not gathered for the 3.31 release.

Re-introduce the behavior originally introduced in CMake 3.30.3 by
commit c1ece78d11 (project: non cache <project> prefix variables are
also created, 2024-08-27, v3.30.3~2^2), but this time with a policy for
compatibility.
Issue: #25714
Issue: #26243
The change in commit 86ad7cc886 (project: Only define non-cache vars if
already defined, 2024-09-15, v3.30.4~2^2) was meant to only check for
non-cache variables when deciding whether to set non-cache project
variables for the current call. However, it erroneously checked for any
variable, including cache variables. This gives the intended result on
the first run, but on subsequent runs a cache variable will exist that
did not on the first run, leading to different behavior between the two
runs. Fix the logic to only check for a pre-existing non-cache
variable, as was originally intended.
Fixes: #26355
Issue a deprecation warning on calls to `cmake_minimum_required` or
`cmake_policy` that set policies based on versions older than 3.10.
Note that the effective policy version includes `...<max>` treatment.
Update the check from commit 3a4791548d (Deprecate compatibility with
CMake versions older than 3.5, 2023-02-09, v3.27.0-rc1~508^2).
This will now preserve empty values in the TEST_LAUNCHER and
CROSSCOMPILING_EMULATOR target properties for tests added by:
- The add_test() command.
- The ExternalData_Add_Test() command from the ExternalData module.
- The gtest_add_tests() or gtest_discover_tests() commands from the
GoogleTest module.
For the gtest_add_tests() and gtest_discover_tests() commands,
empty elements in the values passed after the EXTRA_ARGS keyword
are also now preserved.
Policy CMP0178 is added to provide backward compatibility with the
old behavior where empty values were silently discarded from the
above cases.

Prepare a 3.30.4 release note for commit 86ad7cc886 (project: Only
define non-cache vars if already defined, 2024-09-15).

Traditionally CMake generates link lines by starting with the direct
link dependencies specified by `LINK_LIBRARIES` in their original order
and then appending indirect dependencies that the direct dependencies
do not express. This gives projects control over ordering among
independent entries, which can be important when intermixing flags
and libraries, or when multiple libraries provide the same symbol.
However, it may also result in inefficient link lines.
Add support for an alternative strategy that can reorder direct link
dependencies to produce more efficient link lines. This is useful
for projects that cannot easily specify their targets' direct
dependencies in an order that satisfies indirect dependencies.
Add a `CMAKE_LINK_LIBRARIES_STRATEGY` variable and corresponding
`LINK_LIBRARIES_STRATEGY` target property to select a strategy.

If the connection fails in a way that might be a certificate error, and
verification was enabled by the new default, mention environment
variable `CMAKE_TLS_VERIFY` in the diagnostic to help users that were
relying on the old behavior turn off server certificate verification in
their environment.
Fixes: #23608
The file generated by install(EXPORT) computes _IMPORT_PREFIX
in a way that assumes a normalized path. If the DESTINATION
contains any ../ components, the computed _IMPORT_PREFIX
would be wrong. Force the DESTINATION path to be normalized,
subject to the new CMP0176 policy.
Also normalize all other DESTINATION paths for consistency,
except for INCLUDES DESTINATION, which is not strictly a
destination but rather a search path to add.
Fixes: #26252
Windows is heading toward making UTF-8 the preferred MBCS. As CMake's
internal encoding, `UTF-8` is effectively equivalent to `NONE`, which
was CMake's behavior prior to 3.15's accidental change to `AUTO`.
Behavior of `ENCODING UTF-8` is independent of CMake's internal
encoding, making it in principle a better default than `NONE`.
Add policy CMP0176 for compatibility and to document the default's
history.
