Temporary kludge to avoid this error:

classpath ("gradle.plugin.com.gorylenko.gradle-git-properties:gradle-git-properties:+") {
    exclude group: "org.eclipse.jgit", module: "org.eclipse.jgit"
}
classpath "org.eclipse.jgit:org.eclipse.jgit:4.11.+"

If possible, can you provide a minimal build.gradle to reproduce the issue? Thanks.

Never mind, I can reproduce the issue now. Will provide a fix soon. Thanks for reporting.

This issue comes from grgit 2.1.1 which being used by this plugin (see ajoberstar/grgit#229 ). Specifically, grgit 2.1.1 using jgit with dynamic version range, so jgit 4.x is upgraded automatically to jgit 5.x when 5.x available recently (which is not backward compatible to 4.x).

Solution: We will need to upgrade the plugin dependency from grgit 2.1.1 to grgit 2.2.1 (using static version of jgit)

I have delivered the fix for this issue.

@n0mer Can you help to publish a new version to fix this critical issue soon? Thanks.
