Summary0015172: Show progress during generation step
DescriptionCMake gives a lot of output during the configure step, but no output during the generate step. As of the last few releases, CMake is doing more during the generation stage to resolve transitive build properties, which can take more time, so feedback could be more valuable.

CMake could show more output during the multiple stages of cmGlobalGenerator::Generate quite easily, however, the granularity of that is only the directory level. For the granularity of generating for individual targets (if that is desirable/possible/practical), each of the concrete generators would need to be modified to produce output. The output would have to be the same for each generator so that it could be uniformly parsed.
