[llvm-dev] Moving to a new machine

[via llvm-dev]

I wrote a short bash script to invoke cmake with all the things I always want.  Don’t need to waste valuable neurons on remembering these things.

Unless everything is installed in the same location, copying the CMakeCache.txt likely won't work, as it includes things like paths to compilers in it, if I remember rightly. I've used diffs to try to identify which variables I've set before, but in practice, I end up just memorizing the three or four variables I tend to change from the defaults.

I've edited CMakeCache.txt so many times that I have no idea what to specify on the 'cmake' command line. Should I just guess, run cmake, copy my existing file on top of CMakeCache.txt, and run cmake again?
