+get_source_file_property
+------------------------
+
+Get a property for a source file.
+
+::
+
+ get_source_file_property(VAR file property)
+
+Get a property from a source file. The value of the property is
+stored in the variable ``VAR``. If the property is not found, ``VAR``
+will be set to "NOTFOUND". Use :command:`set_source_files_properties`
+to set property values. Source file properties usually control how the
+file is built. One property that is always there is :prop_sf:`LOCATION`
+
+See also the more general :command:`get_property` command.
