Demo project structure set up for modern CMake and C++

This repo contains a skeleton C++ project set up with following goals in mind:

modern C++ (C++17, at this time -- I'm not quite ready to jump into C++20)
unit testing with [GoogleTest] framework
directory structure of "src", "include", and "test"
declarative CMake configuration with defaults wherever possible and leaving CMake to figure out everything else

Use

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
ctest

You can also run the build/test/Tests binary directly, instead of with ctest. This can be use to see more details of a failing test:

build$ ./test/Tests 
Running main() from gmock_main.cc
...
[ RUN      ] Calc.Log2
/Users/davor/projects/davor/edcpp/test/test_log2.cc:7: Failure
Expected equality of these values:
  calc_log2(1024)
    Which is: 10
  11
log2 1024 == 10
[  FAILED  ] Calc.Log2 (0 ms)
[ RUN      ] Calc.Ln
[       OK ] Calc.Ln (0 ms)
[----------] 4 tests from Calc (0 ms total)

[----------] Global test environment tear-down
[==========] 4 tests from 1 test suite ran. (1 ms total)
[  PASSED  ] 3 tests.
[  FAILED  ] 1 test, listed below:
[  FAILED  ] Calc.Log2

 1 FAILED TEST

Thanks to Daniel Pfeifer for his excellent tutorial "Effective CMake" (C++ Now 2017) that inspired me to apply those principles in my own C++ projects. Any errors and misapplication of CMake you find on this repo are entirely mine.
