When a CMakeLists.txt file changes CMake automatically re-generates the 
build system to account for the changes.  If incrediBuild cannot handle 
the possibility of the project files changing during the build then it 
is a bug in that tool, not in CMake.  You can work-around the problem by 
always manually re-running CMake to regenerate the project before 
loading it in VS.  If the build system is up to date CMake will not 
re-run or re-generate the project files.
