Hi,

This is a feature proposal for the documentation. Cmake is making use of cmake_minimum_required() command, that is very useful. Unfortunately it is very hard to identify commands that will work without browsing all version of cmake documentation for a given command.


This has been brought up for discussion more than once e.g.:
    https://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=15517
    https://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=15222
    http://public.kitware.com/pipermail/cmake/2016-April/063306.html

Personally I still don't think this needs change.
You don't have to browse all versions of the documentation ... you only have to work with the documentation that matches the version you declared in cmake_minimum_required().
