CDT CMake Builder reconfiguring on every build [message #1833308]

I am working on a C++ program that uses the eclipse cmake builder and is versioned using the GIT interface of eclipse.
My problem is that eclipse performs a complete rebuild of the program including running the CMake configuration everytime I compile the program. This happens even, if the only changes I made are in a single C++ source file.
How can I prevent this so that eclipse does incremental builds whenever possible?

Presumably, Eclipse is running cmake --build
It is up to CMake to determine what to build.
Asking how to use an external tool (I.e., CMake) is off-topic for this forum.
You will have better luck at stackoverflow.com or a site devoted to CMake.
