[cmake-developers] How to obtain a list of target dependencies

[Robert Dailey]

I'm going to add the CMake Dev group as well, since I asked this same
question last year around May and I didn't get any response. Hoping
for some help this time around. I don't see anything documented, so
maybe the developers know the best approach here.
