0.4.0

A breaking release to address an issue with task dependencies, particularly implicit dependencies from adding to the gitPublish.contents CopySpec. All tasks were rewritten as concrete task classes, instead of declaring ad-hoc ones. This involved using Gradle's new-ish Provider API, raising the minimum Gradle version to 4.3.

For users upgrading from <0.4.0, the use of Property on the extension removes the ability to assign GString transparently. This is due to gradle/gradle#3005.

gitPublish {
  // This will no longer work
  commitMessage = "Deploy docs to gh-pages (${grgit.head().abbreviatedId})"
  // Must change to this
  commitMessage = "Deploy docs to gh-pages (${grgit.head().abbreviatedId})".toString()
}

Breaking Changes

• Requires Gradle 4.3+ due to use of Provider API for lazy configuration of rewritten task classes

Enhancements

• Update from grgit 2.1.1 to 2.2.0

Fixes

• #41 gitPublishCopy doesn't have implicit dependencies on inputs of gitPublish.contents anymore

Deprecations

None
