+  after each target is completed.
+
+* The :manual:`Compile Features <cmake-compile-features(7)>` functionality
+  is now aware of features supported by GNU C compilers on Windows.
+
+* The ``SONAME`` field is no longer set for ``MODULE`` libraries
+  created with the :command:`add_library` command.  ``MODULE``
+  libraries are meant for explicit dynamic loading at runtime.
+  They cannot be linked so ``SONAME`` is not useful.

+  Manifest files named as sources of ``.exe`` and ``.dll`` targets
+  will be merged with linker-generated manifests and embedded in the
+  binary.

+* The :module:`FindPkgConfig` learned a new :command:`pkg_get_variable`
+  command which may be used to query for arbitrary variables from a package
+  (such as for related tools or data and plugin install paths).
+
+* The :variable:`CMAKE_USE_RELATIVE_PATHS` variable no longer has any
+  effect.  Previously it was partially implemented and unreliable.
+
+* CMake no longer links executables with flags to export symbols
+  unless the :prop_tgt:`ENABLE_EXPORTS` target property is set.
+  See policy :policy:`CMP0065`.
+
+* The :command:`string` command learned a new ``APPEND`` subcommand.
+
+* The :prop_tgt:`SOURCE_DIR` and :prop_tgt:`BINARY_DIR` target properties
+  were introduced to allow project code to query where a target is defined.
+
+* The :module:`CheckFunctionExists`, :module:`CheckLibraryExists`,
+  :module:`CheckSymbolExists`, and :module:`FindThreads` modules learned to
+  work in environments where only CXX is enabled.
+
+* Add ``--trace-expand`` argument to CMake. Acts like ``--trace``, but expands
+  variable references in the output.
+
+* :ref:`Visual Studio Generators` learned to support additonal
+  target properties to customize projects for NVIDIA Nsight
+  Tegra Visual Studio Edition:
+
+  * :prop_tgt:`ANDROID_ANT_ADDITIONAL_OPTIONS`
+  * :prop_tgt:`ANDROID_ARCH`

+  a Windows 10 SDK based on the value of the :variable:`CMAKE_SYSTEM_VERSION`
+  variable and the SDKs available on the host.
