Thanks Arnold - that’s great! I also spent a lot of time fixing the same issue a few months ago, and back then managed to get the up-to-date checks / incremental builds working correctly. However it seems like they were then again broken by some of the more recent changes - so let’s hope they remain fixed going forward, and keep an eye on this.
One problematic area seems to be definitely the OpenAPI generation / fineract.yaml file. The fineract.yaml file is both a source file (for the client generation) as well as an output (from fineract-provider build) and also something that is included in the different distributions. This doesn’t fit nicely with the “one-directional” sources -> outputs -> distributions model assumed by Gradle, and seemed to get Gradle confused enough to trigger too many rebuilds in some scenarios. But good to hear you’ve found a way to solve these - I’ll take a look later today to learn how it’s done! Great work again!
