+RULE_MESSAGES
+-------------
+
+Specify whether to report a message for each make rule.
+
+This property specifies whether Makefile generators should add a
+progress message describing what each build rule does. If the
+property is not set the default is ON. Set the property to OFF to
+disable granular messages and report only as each target completes.
+This is intended to allow scripted builds to avoid the build time cost
+of detailed reports. If a ``CMAKE_RULE_MESSAGES`` cache entry exists
+its value initializes the value of this property. Non-Makefile
+generators currently ignore this property.
