These settings are really for the CI: the assumption is, if you’re bulding FG yourself, you want a ‘Dev’ build with the development options enabled. Nightly and Release adjust some defaults (and the log levels) and are set by the corresponding CI YAML.

This is totally orthogonal to the CMake build config, which selects Debugs / Release / RelWithDebInfo : those affect things like compiler flags, whereas the FG build type affects things like ‘should DEV_WARN messages be shown or not’

Kind regards,
