[GRADLE-1223] Support property preconditions, prompting and persistence Created: 17/Nov/10  Updated: 10/Feb/17  Resolved: 10/Feb/17

 Description   

Per conversations with Hans:

Support a section in the build script where required properties are specified.

Search for those properties very early in the build lifecycle.

If a property is not (a) assigned at task configuration time, (b) specified in the project's gradle.properties (c) specified in $HOME/.gradle/gradle.properties, then fall back to a prompt.

Give users the option at that prompt to persist the value of that property in the location of their choice.

Provide an option to encrypt sensitive passwords on persistence.

Provide INFO level logging that shows the system's algorithm for determining property values. Use the output of ssh -v for inspiration.
