Release notes

Sourced from com.gradleup.shadow's releases.

9.6.1

Changed

• Use GradleException for expected build failures. (#2113)

Fixed

• Preserve repeated lines in R8 rule files when using minimize { r8 { ... } }. (#2115)

9.6.0

Added

• Extract R8 rules from dependency JARs when using minimize { r8 { ... } }. (#2089)

Changed

• Rename ShadowDslMarker to ShadowDsl. (#2091)
• POTENTIALLY BREAKING: Apply @ShadowDsl to ShadowJar, ResourceTransformer, DependencyFilter, and Relocator. (#2090)
  This restricts nested DSL configuration blocks from implicitly calling outer receiver APIs in Kotlin script files.

Fixed

• Validate ZIP entry names to prevent Zip Slip path traversal.
• Avoid resolving unused R8 dependency. (#2101)

9.5.1

Fixed

• Fix eager calls for toolchainSpec in Kotlin DSL. (#2087)

9.5.0

Added

• Check DuplicatesStrategy for merging transformers. (#2026)
  This will log warnings when an incompatible DuplicatesStrategy (e.g., EXCLUDE) is applied in Gradle configuration for built-in ResourceTransformers.
• Add KotlinModuleMetadataTransformer. (#2073)
• Add R8 as an opt-in minimize { r8 { ... } } tool for shrinking the final shadowed JAR. (#2077)

Changed

• Bump min Gradle requirement to 9.2.0. (#2057)
• Remove afterEvaluate when adding variants. (#2056)

Deprecated

• Deprecate enableKotlinModuleRemapping for ShadowJar. (#2073)
  Apply KotlinModuleMetadataTransformer explicitly to support relocating inside Kotlin module metadata files. This flag will be disabled and removed in the next major release.
• Deprecate everything under ShadowCopyAction. (#2083)

The build failure is due to a Gradle API incompatibility.

Shadow plugin 9.5.0+ requires Gradle 9.2.0 or later, but this project uses Gradle 8.11. The method AdhocComponentWithVariants.addVariantsFromConfiguration(Provider, Action) was added in the Gradle 9.x API.

Options:

1. Keep Shadow at 9.4.x (last version supporting Gradle 8.x) until the project upgrades to Gradle 9.x
2. Upgrade the Gradle wrapper to 9.2.0+ alongside this bump

@dependabot ignore this major version

OK, I won't notify you about version 9.x.x again, unless you re-open this PR.
