Indeed - it's been caught. Sorry about the noise on that one.

For cpack to be even more useful, it would be really helpful to some
form of a 'prefix' option (perhaps I missed that one) and the ability to
write to stdout (I also might have missed that one too).

For example,

$ cpack -G TAR- -D PREFIX=platforms/linux64Gcc/paraview-3.7.0
<buildDir>/Applications/ParaView/CPackParaViewConfig.cmake >
myParaview.tar


It could also be used (or misused) to install directly without an
intermediate file:

$ cpack -G TAR- -D PREFIX=platforms/linux64Gcc/paraview-3.7.0
<buildDir>/Applications/ParaView/CPackParaViewConfig.cmake | (cd MY_PATH
&& tar -xBf -)


"man git-archive" describes fairly closely what would be desirable.

I'm reaching (or missing it) via the Help (F1) and trying to get
information on the sources, filters or readers as illustrated in the
attached screenshot.

$ cmake --version
cmake version 2.8.0
