I like to live life in the fast lane. I like my build tools to do the same. How about a fix so that the wrapper task always keeps my build on the bleeding edge ? So that avoids me needing to fix umteen build.gradle scripts when your magic fingers put out a new release ?
Maybe ‘current’ for the release you consider most stable ( 1.8 ) and latestRC for the bleeding edge like 1.9-rc-1
task wrapper(type: Wrapper) {
gradleVersion : current
}
or
task wrapper(type: Wrapper) {
gradleVersion : latestRC
}
