You are right. But this is a bug (which will be fixed for 0.9). A top-level
into should be used by any from (unless a particular into is specified by a
from).
So at the moment you have to do:
task srcZip(type: Zip) {
from(projectDir) {
into 'someSubDi'
}
}
I have just realized that the following is equivalent:
task srcZip(type: Zip) {
into('someSubDir') {
from(projectDir)
}
}
