I don't think we can remove this. Current ASF policy prohibits binary files like the wrapper jar from being included in the src zip. So, to build from source, we need to have the bootstrap step. Here is where we exclude 'wrapper' (which contains version in properties file): https://github.com/apache/groovy/blob/master/subprojects/groovy-binary/build.gradle#L184 Best bet is to only update version using bootstrap step - though I realise that isn't what dependabot et al will use or the standard instructions from Gradle. There are other approaches to solve the problem, which I guess we could relook at, but it wouldn't be (just) the change suggested here. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
