Log message:
devel/gradle: Update to 4.8.0.

- Dependency locking
- Improvements to publishing plugins:
  - Signing Plugin now supports signing all artifacts of a publication
  - Maven Publish Plugin now provides a dedicated, type-safe DSL to
    customize the POM generated as part of a Maven publication
  - Ivy Publish Plugin now provides a dedicated, type-safe DSL to
    customize the Ivy module descriptor generated as part of an Ivy
    publication
  - Configuration-wide dependency excludes are now published
- The maven-publish and ivy-publish plugins are now considered stable
  and use of the maven plugin is discouraged as it will eventually be
  deprecated
- User experience for incremental annotation processing is improved.
- Compilation will no longer fail when a processor does something that
  Gradle detects will not work incrementally
- Unused non-incremental processors no longer prevent incremental
  compilation
- Annotation processors are now able to decide dynamically if they are
  incremental or not
- Kotlin DSL 0.17.5

Log message:
devel/gradle: Update to 4.7.

- Gradle's incremental Java compiler can now run annotation processing
  incrementally.
- Support for Gradle builds with JDK 10
- Gradle log output is now grouped by task for non-interactive
  execution.
- Failed tests now run first. Together with the --fail-fast option it
  provides the quickest possible feedback loop.
- Incubating new capability for Kotlin DSL users: precompiled script
  plugins.
- Kotlin DSL v0.16 also includes Kotlin 1.2.31, a more consistent API,
  better IDE support, and more.

Log message:
Update devel/gradle to 4.4.1.

- We started shipping JGit 4.5.3.201708160445-r in Gradle 4.4. Some of
  the non-shaded JGit resources leaked into the gradleApi() dependency
  and caused problems in some builds. We now shade all of JGit's
  resources.
- Some builds using Kotlin DSL had problems applying the build-scan
  plugin in Gradle 4.4. We've updated to kotlin-dsl 0.13.2.
- Gradle 4.4 contained changes to internal APIs that broke the popular
  Nebula dependency lock plugin. This release restores binary
  compatibility for that plugin.

Log message:
Update devel/gradle to 4.4.

- Visual Studio 2017 is now supported.
- The eclipse plugin now provides separate output folders
- Kotlin DSL updated to version 0.13
- Support version ranges in parent elements of a POM
- Better incremental builds and build cache support for C/C++
- Support for the combination of Play 2.6 and Scala 2.12
- Takes all plugin repositories into account and can resolve
  transitive plugin dependencies across them.

Log message:
Update devel/gradle to 4.3.1.

This bug-fix release addresses several regressions in Gradle 4.3.

- Gradle 4.3 introduced an improvement where an error in resolving a
  module from one repository would prevent Gradle from searching for
  that same module in subsequent repositories. However, the change to
  abort searching repositories on all unrecognized errors proved to be
  too aggressive. With 4.3.1, only repository timeout errors will
  prevent Gradle from searching for a module in a subsequent repository.
- Moreover, the connection and socket timeouts for HTTP/HTTPS requests
  have been increased to 30 seconds.
- This version of Gradle also removes an overload of
  TaskInputs.property which caused statically compiled plugin code to
  use the wrong method when calling TaskInputs.property(..., null).
- Finally, when using --scan the build scan plugin is applied before
  other plugins to avoid rendering a warning message.

Log message:
Update devel/gradle to 4.3.

- Experimental build cache support for C and C++ compilation.
- Gradle Kotlin DSL v0.12
- You can now use the build scan plugin without configuring it in your
  build.
- Gradle now defines connection and socket timeouts for all HTTP(S)
  requests.
- The plugins {} DSL can now be used in more cases.
- The runtime task inputs API is now more consistent with the
  statically-compiled API.
- New console verbose mode will print outcomes of all tasks like Gradle
  3.5 and earlier did.
- New task output DirectoryProperty and RegularFileProperty types.

Log message:
Update devel/gradle to 4.2.

Significant changes:

- Parallel native compilation and linking tasks
- Faster zipTree and tarTree
- Better support for script plugins from HTTP/HTTPS URLs
- Support for Google Cloud Storage backed repositories
- Better Play support
- Features for easier plugin authoring
- UX improvements
- Safer handling of stale output files
- Connect to untrusted HTTPS build cache
