David I don't think this is correct.
Here's a test using file(GLOB) + install(FILES):
[tyle...@alta:~/install-dir-vs-file-glob-test/b]$ cat ../CMakeLists.txt
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.6)
project (test)
set (CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX "/tmp/install.test.tmr")
file (GLOB header_files "include/*.h")
install (FILES ${header_files} DESTINATION include)
[tyle...@alta:~/install-dir-vs-file-glob-test/b]$ cmake ..
-- Configuring done

-- Build files have been written to:

[tyle...@alta:~/install-dir-vs-file-glob-test/b]$ make install
Install the project...
-- Install configuration: ""
-- Installing: /tmp/install.test.tmr/include/foo.h
[tyle...@alta:~/install-dir-vs-file-glob-test/b]$ touch ../include/bar.h
[tyle...@alta:~/install-dir-vs-file-glob-test/b]$ make install
Install the project...
-- Install configuration: ""
-- Up-to-date: /tmp/install.test.tmr/include/foo.h
Note that CMake does not notice the addition of bar.h.
Here's a test using install(DIRECTORY):
[tyle...@alta:~/install-dir-vs-file-glob-test/b]$ cat ../CMakeLists.txt
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.6)
project (test)
set (CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX "/tmp/install.test.tmr")
install (DIRECTORY include DESTINATION include)
[tyle...@alta:~/install-dir-vs-file-glob-test/b]$ make install
Install the project...
-- Install configuration: ""
-- Installing: /tmp/install.test.tmr/include/include
-- Installing: /tmp/install.test.tmr/include/include/foo.h
[tyle...@alta:~/install-dir-vs-file-glob-test/b]$ touch ../include/bar.h
[tyle...@alta:~/install-dir-vs-file-glob-test/b]$ make install
Install the project...
-- Install configuration: ""
-- Installing: /tmp/install.test.tmr/include/include
-- Up-to-date: /tmp/install.test.tmr/include/include/foo.h
-- Installing: /tmp/install.test.tmr/include/include/bar.h
Note that bar.h is noticed and installed.
