PragmaTwice opened a new issue, #561:
URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-kvrocks/issues/561

   The current `cmake/gtest.cmake` is confusing, especially since it contains a 
directory on [line 
38](https://github.com/apache/incubator-kvrocks/blob/cf9901f88f5905f75e542999529fcbad2ec66dd1/cmake/gtest.cmake#L38)
 that does not exist, so this file does not seem to provide any functionality.
   
   The project uses the system-supplied gtest, which makes it difficult to 
control its version. It also seems that the project does not use mechanisms 
such as `find_package` for gtest, but relies directly on the system header 
directory (e.g. `/usr/include` to find `gtest/gest.h`) and the `-lgtest` link 
option.
   
   I think it would be better to reintroduce googletest with fixed tag/commit 
hash at the cmake level (source level) using `ExternalProject` or 
`FetchContent`. Since gtest doesn't have many translation units, it doesn't 
take long to compile.
   
   I'm happy to provide PRs if that sounds like a good idea.
