Description

Describe the issue

CMake FetchContent_* does not work with GTest as dependency name. If the dependency name is changed to googletest or to foobar everything works as expected. This is very unfortunate because GTets is used in the find_package command of CMake and if this fails the FetchContent mechanism can be used as fallback. But not on windows as you can see here:
