Well, really Gradle Wrapper is optional. It seems that the majority of the users like that, so we do have Maven Wrapper as well now.

Thank you for the response.

Looks like I don't need it because I never use Gradle Wrapper and always stick with the latest Gradle Version only. (I actually wished there was an option to avoid Gradle Wrapper completely, there was never a Make or ANT wrapper for good. Downloading random stuff from the network outside of the OS' package manager still gives me shivers.)

Make sure you add the gardle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.jar along with the grade/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.properties file. (Unless some policy explicitly state otherwise) Although that is a binary file, that is java the entry point of gradlew and gradlew.bat files. That would download the correct Gradle if it is not installed on the system.

Laszlo,

thank you for advise, please care to elaborate. Why should it be there when it can be rebuild on demand? What is the advantage of tracking it and the disadvantage of dismissing it?
Sorry to bother you, I just would like to learn.

Cheers
Andreas
