Highlights

This release brings significant behaviour improvements to Enhanced caching, improvements to the generated Job Summary, and a number of correctness and security fixes.

  1. Improved cache-cleanup mechanism. Cleanup of stale files from the Gradle User Home is now faster, and no longer depends on Gradle or a JVM. It works by inspecting the local file state directly, removing the Gradle invocation from the post-build step.
  2. More granular, more stable caching. The local build cache is stored as a separate cache entry, so it can be restored and invalidated independently of the main Gradle User Home entry. Transient Gradle housekeeping files are excluded from the cache, reducing its size and improving stability.
  3. Hide obsolete Job summaries in PR commments: When a new Job summary comment is added to a PR, previous outdated Job summaries are now hidden.
  4. Improved caching report in the job summary. The cache report now uses a single, consistent layout across all cache states and providers. Provider information is integrated directly into the report, and per-entry details are available in an expandable section. (#​985)
  5. Correctness and security fixes. A unique cache key is now used per run attempt, so re-runs no longer collide; the job summary shows the cache key string rather than an internal id; and bundled dependencies have been updated, including a ReDoS fix and a fast-xml CVE fix.

New: Basic Cache Provider

A new MIT-licensed Basic Caching provider is now available as an alternative to the proprietary Enhanced Caching provided by gradle-actions-caching. Choose Basic Caching by setting cache-provider: basic on setup-gradle or dependency-submission actions.

  • Built on @actions/cache -- fully open source
  • Caches ~/.gradle/caches and ~/.gradle/wrapper directories
  • Cache key derived from build files (*.gradle*, gradle-wrapper.properties, etc.)
  • Clean cache on build file changes (no restore keys, preventing stale entry accumulation)

Limitations vs Enhanced Caching: No cache cleanup, no deduplication of cached content, cached content is fixed unless build files change.

Revamped Licensing & Distribution Documentation
  • New DISTRIBUTION.md documents the licensing of each component (particularly Basic Caching vs Enhanced Caching)
  • Simplified licensing notices in README, docs, and runtime log output
  • Clear usage tiers: Enhanced Caching is free for public repos and in Free Preview for private repos

TL;DR: By upgrading to v6, you accept the Terms of Use for the gradle-actions-caching component.

Summary
  • Caching functionality of 'gradle-actions' has been extracted into a separate gradle-actions-caching library, and is no longer open-source. See this blog post for more context.
  • Existing, rudimentary, configuration-cache support has been removed, pending a fully functional implementation in gradle-actions-caching.
  • Dependencies updated to address security vulnerabilities

Full Changelog: gradle/actions@v4.4.1...v4.4.2

v4.4.1

Compare Source

This patch release fixes a bug in Develocity Injection with a custom plugin repository.
The gradle-plugin-repository-* action parameters were not being correctly mapped to environment variables that are read by the Develocity Injection init script.

This issue has been fixed by setting the correct environment variables:

  • gradle-plugin-repository-url is mapped to DEVELOCITY_INJECTION_PLUGIN_REPOSITORY_URL
  • gradle-plugin-repository-username is mapped to DEVELOCITY_INJECTION_PLUGIN_REPOSITORY_USERNAME
  • gradle-plugin-repository-password is mapped to DEVELOCITY_INJECTION_PLUGIN_REPOSITORY_PASSWORD

Additionally, these parameters can now be used to configure a custom plugin repository for the GitHub Dependency Graph Gradle Plugin, required for dependency submission.
