Typically the build folder is ephemeral and shouldn't include files that should get checked into SCC. The CMakeLists.txt should instead be placed in the project root and then a build folder can be made and from within that cmake .. can be run or the cmake extension for VS Code can be configured to look at the project root and then put cmake configuration output in build.

This will then also impact later steps and how they refer to source paths.

I've forked and plan on documenting the changes, wanted to document the issue here after noticing this helping out Andy with an issue.

@negentropicdev It seems like this is still an open issue in the documentation. Were you still intending on making this change?
