Summary:                    COMMAND cannot parse shell []
Description: 
Any COMMAND that starts with '[' and has some statement followed by ']'
generates some parser error that never occurred in CMAKE 2.x.  I cannot recall
the exact error as I downgraded to CMAKE 2.8.12, but it was something about
expecting a parenthesis.

Steps to Reproduce: 
Try this or some shorter version of this in a cmakelists.txt file:
COMMAND [ ! -d "${CMAKE_CFG_INTDIR}/lib" ] || cp -rf "${CMAKE_CFG_INTDIR}/lib"
"${CMAKE_CFG_INTDIR}/${APPLICATION_NAME}.app/Contents/MacOS/"


Additional Information: 
all parse-able COMMANDS in CMAKE 2.8 need to be parse-able in 3.x.
