Question out of curiosity as I now realise this form of FetchContent_Populate isn't deprecated: could we not only change the original FetchContent_Populate here to the explicit syntax here and have it work on both old and new version of CMake without the version-specific changes? Or is there something I'm missing?

Yes, we could switch fully over to *_Populate.

I’m not really a fan of that, since it seems like the CMake devs are pushing us towards using *_Declare and *_MakeAvailable over the last few updates. Switching to *_Populate feels like we’re going against that trend.

That being said, maintaining three different code paths to achieve the same goal is probably alot worse. It complicates the review process and makes the code harder to manage.

I guess, if we run into issues with *_Populate in the future, we can deal with them then. :D

Anyway, latest commit switches everything to *_Populate with the explicit syntax. This has the sideeffect that cpm_declare_fetch could be removed, because it's not being used by anything anymore. And compared to master the changes are minimal.

The unittests passed locally, but I'm out of time and not able to test on some of my larger projects. :D
