Gradle git is failing the configuration-cache

[credmond-git]

What happened?

PS D:\dev\audit> ./gradlew --configuration-cache help
Picked up JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS: -Dlog4j.formatMsgNoLookups=true
Calculating task graph as no cached configuration is available for tasks: help
Type-safe project accessors is an incubating feature.
Project accessors enabled, but root project name not explicitly set for 'buildSrc'. Checking out the project in different folders will impact the generated code and implicitly the buildscript classpath, breaking caching.

Configure project :
Git Build Information
last tag: v0.2X.0
version: v0.2X.0-6-XXXXXXXdirty
gitHash: XXXXXXX
isCleanTag: false

Deprecated Gradle features were used in this build, making it incompatible with Gradle 9.0.

You can use '--warning-mode all' to show the individual deprecation warnings and determine if they come from your own scripts or plugins.

For more on this, please refer to https://docs.gradle.org/8.8/userguide/command_line_interface.html#sec:command_line_warnings in the Gradle documentation.

Configuration cache entry discarded with 12 problems.

To get the git information we use

val versionDetails: groovy.lang.Closure<VersionDetails> by extra
        val details = versionDetails()

        println("Git Build Information")
        println("last tag: ${details.lastTag}")
        println("version: ${details.version}")
        println("gitHash: ${details.gitHash}")
        println("isCleanTag: ${details.isCleanTag}")
        println("branchName: ${details.branchName}")

What did you want to happen?

Gradle Git properly supports the new configuration cache features.
