These are just convenience cmake  functions for setting up OSG
libraries, application and plugins.  These cmake functions only exist
because the OSG has hundreds of separate submodules & examples so it
makes sense to make it easier to set up the libs + applications with
same settings each time. They are defined in
OpenSceneGraph/CMakeModules/OsgMacroUtils.cmake.

When writing you own applications you wouldn't use these but roll your
own CMake scripts, the OpenSceneGraph/examples/CMakeExample provides a
bare bones CMakeLists.txt that illustrates how to create your own
build using CMake + OSG.
