[Cmake] Strange

[Miller, James V (Research)]

I may not be understanding how CMake handles IF/ELSE/ENDIF constructs. Or this could 
be a bug.  The following CMakeLists.txt file outputs both "Not Bar" and "Bar" indicating to 
me that both the IF clause and the ELSE clause are being executed.  If I remove the SET
command then the ELSE clause is not executed.
 
What "should" happen in this case?
 
 
PROJECT(FOO)
 
IF (NOT BAR)
   MESSAGE("Not Bar")
   SET(BAR "garf")
ELSE (NOT BAR)
   MESSAGE("Bar")
ENDIF (NOT BAR)
