I believe there might be other people, not only me, who, when first opened documentation for `if()` command, saw list of condition operators in “Condition Syntax” section, and wrongfully assumed that they are the only checks that CMake supports. I wonder if it worth adding all documented checks to that list?
I failed to create merge request, but maybe I can post [a link to my commit](https://gitlab.kitware.com/Lex-2008/cmake/-/commit/91f6e10ba926b6ee2ad308b448ac786a14194031) here, in case someone wants to take it.

Thanks. I cherry-picked your commit to create [CMake MR 9767](https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/-/merge_requests/9767).

You’ve correctly pushed the branch to your fork. You should be able to visit your fork’s page on GitLab, click on the “Merge Requests” section on the left, and then see a button to create a new merge request.

Thank you for the prompt reply and picking my commit!
And sorry I probably should’ve been more specific: When I filled out the form to create MR, gitlab told me: “Your merge request has been recognized as spam” (picture attached). Tried rewording my commit message twice with same result. Tried to create an issue with a text similar to first message in this thread - received a similar reply (no picture this time, sorry). Not sure if antispam got triggered by some words in the message or by the age of my few-minutes-old account, but good that you have more ways to communicate! 😅

Thank you! I’m more a CMake _user_ rather then _developer_, but I’ll keep that in mind if i see something else i can contribute with!
