+### Integrating Catch2 into the build
+
+The libsgfc++ build system integrates Catch2 by way of the CMake commands `find_package()` or `add_subdirectory()`. It attempts to locate the package in two steps:
+
+1. First the build system looks for a system-wide package in a series of likely installation paths. The search logic is exceedingly complicated and can be looked up in the CMake documentation of the `find_package()` command.
+2. If there is no system-wide package the build system then looks for the package in a defined path where it expects to find a Catch2 source distribution. This can be either a Catch2 git repository clone or a a plain directory that is structurally identical to the repository layout. For this the build system uses the `add_subdirectory()` command.
+
+If both lookup attempts fail, the build fails.
+
+You can define the source distribution path where the build system should look for the package by defining the variable `CATCH2_SOURCEDISTRIBUTION_PREFIX`:
+
+    cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
+          -DCATCH2_SOURCEDISTRIBUTION_PREFIX=/path/to/folder \
+          ..
+
+If you don't define a source distribution path, the build system assumes `test/Catch2` as the default source distribution path. This path points to the Catch2 Git submodule which you have initialized at the very beginning.
+
 ## How to install
 
 After the tests have run successfully you install the build products to a destination folder of your choice. CMake 3.15 and newer include a command line option `--install` which can be used like this:
