#.rst:
# ECMOptionalAddSubdirectory
# --------------------------
#
# Make subdiretories optional.
#
# ::
#
#   ecm_optional_add_subdirectory(<dir>)
#
# This behaves like add_subdirectory(), except that it does not complain if the
# directory does not exist.  Additionally, if the directory does exist, it
# creates an option to allow the user to skip it.
#
# This is useful for "meta-projects" that combine several mostly-independent
# sub-projects.
#
# If the CMake variable DISABLE_ALL_OPTIONAL_SUBDIRECTORIES is set to TRUE for
# the first CMake run on the project, all optional subdirectories will be
# disabled by default (but can of course be enabled via the respective options).
# For example, the following will disable all optional subdirectories except the
# one named "foo":
#
# .. code-block:: sh
#
#   cmake -DDISABLE_ALL_OPTIONAL_SUBDIRECTORIES=TRUE -DBUILD_foo=TRUE myproject
