Overview
'gradle.properties' files are used to define configuration properties.
gradle.properties can be present in two layers: the user home directory .gradle directory and the project root.
If files from both layers are present, their content is merged and the configuration that comes from the user home directory takes precedence over the configuration that comes from the project root directory. This makes sense from a security perspective, as the user home directory is not checked in into a repository while the project is, and we need to store security sensitive configuration. The project root gradle.properties is important because it can be stored in source control, so the entire team working on the project can share the same configuration.
Hierarchy
Gradle User Home gradle.properties
This file is stored in Gradle user home directory ~/.gradle/gradle.properties, conventionally referred to as GRADLE_USER_HOME.
Project Root gradle.properties
Conventionally, this is where the version of the project is stored:
version=1.0-SNAPSHOT
