 * Configuration of the nested settings defaults to the main `dockerCompose` settings (declared before the nested settings), except following properties: `projectName`, `startedServices`, `useComposeFiles`, `scale`, `captureContainersOutputToFile`, `captureContainersOutputToFiles`, `composeLogToFile`, `containerLogToDir`, `pushServices`
 
 When exposing service info from `myNestedComposeUp` task into your task you should use following syntax:
-```

 test.doFirst {
