[CMake] nmake build with different options at command line

[Chauhan, Vikas]

My question has been stated in this post before, but I will repeat here
for convenience:
We have a way to build desired configuration using cmake (independent of
what is present as default in cmakecache.txt):
cmd> cmake --build .. --config= Release

I can choose different build config here at build time NOT at build
generation time (and is independent of what is present in
cmakecache.txt).

However, this is with cmake. My question is that how do I do the same
thing with nmake?

Thanks,
Vikas
