Manage files in CMake projects
When you add new or existing files to a project, Qt Creator automatically adds them to the qt_add_executable, add_executable, or qt_add_library function in the CMakeLists.txt file.
If Qt Creator cannot recognize where the target is created, it will use the target_sources function to add the files.
For Qt Quick projects, the files are added to the qt_add_qml_module function, prefixed with the QML_FILES, SOURCES, or RESOURCES function argument.
When you rename or remove files in the Projects or File System view, Qt Creator renames them in the CMakeLists.txt file or removes them from it.
