Hi Michael!
The thing is that given that cmake is a complex language, kdevelop's cmake
project support changes the project itself and then asks you to accept the
change, because in most cases there are many ways to do all these things.

If you don't know cmake a lot, you probably want to accept it, but if you
want to use cmake you probably want to learn it too.

KDevelop3 couldn't modify cmake projects (not for adding c++ files or
anything)
