Hello,
I’ve found and issue when working with gradle in Android projects. My system only has gradle 2.10 available and it doesn’t support some new features of the Android plugin (like the new Google maven repository) so I need to use a more updated gradle wrapper. However if I try to download a newer version with gradle wrapper --gradle-version 4.1 it parses build.gradle and fails:
gradle wrapper --gradle-version 4.1
To honour the JVM settings for this build a new JVM will be forked. Please consider using the daemon: https://docs.gradle.org/2.10/userguide/gradle_daemon.html.

How can I download the gradle wrapper in a folder with a build.gradle without parsing it?
Thanks
