How should CMake find out that it needs to update it's file list then?

Citing from the FILE(GLOB) documentation:

(We do not recommend using GLOB to collect a list of source files from
your source tree. If no CMakeLists.txt file changes when a source is added
or removed then the generated build system cannot know when to ask CMake
to regenerate.)
