I use Cmake with GNU Make and would like to see all commands exactly (for example how the compiler is executed, all the flags etc)

GNU make has --debug, but it does not seem to be that helpful are there any other options? Does Cmake provide additional flags in the generated Makefile for debugging purpose?
