+TARGET_MESSAGES
+---------------
+
+Specify whether to report the completion of each target.
+
+This property specifies whether :ref:`Makefile Generators` should
+add a progress message describing that each target has been completed.
+If the property is not set the default is ``ON``. Set the property
+to ``OFF`` to disable target completion messages.
+
+This option is intended to reduce build output when little or no
+work needs to be done to bring the build tree up to date.
+
+If a ``CMAKE_TARGET_MESSAGES`` cache entry exists its value
+initializes the value of this property.
+
+Non-Makefile generators currently ignore this property.
+
+See the counterpart property :prop_gbl:`RULE_MESSAGES` to disable
+everything except for target completion messages.
