1. Never use GLOB_RECURSE. It's evil. E.g. if you add or remove source files,
CMake has no way of knowing that it should be re-run. Just list all the files
in your CMakeLists.txt (or, if you think the list is excessively long, create a
file called e.g. files.cmake, put the list in there and INCLUDE it in the
CMakeLists.txt file.
2. Never do in-source builds. CMake creates many, many files, and you don't
want to delete them all individually for a clean build. And there's no way to
implement a safe "make clean" (e.g. your build system might be running a custom
utility which generates files CMake knows nothing about).
