Or said differently, you can remove it, but you then need to use the new name without unsafe

Release notes:
&gt; See <https://docs.gradle.org/8.1/userguide/upgrading_version_8.html#configuration_caching_options_renamed|the upgrading guide> if you were already using this feature in previous releases, as all `org.gradle.unsafe.configuration-cache...` properties were renamed to reflect the fact they are now fully supported.
Upgrade guide:
&gt; <https://docs.gradle.org/8.1/userguide/upgrading_version_8.html#configuration_caching_options_renamed|Configuration cache options renamed>
&gt; 
&gt; In this release, the configuration cache feature was promoted from incubating to stable, and as such, all properties originally mentioned in the feature documentation (which had an `unsafe` part in their names, e.g. `org.gradle.unsafe.configuration-cache`) were renamed, in some cases, by just removing the `unsafe` bit.
&gt; 
&gt; *Incubating propertyFinalized property*`org.gradle.unsafe.configuration-cache`
&gt; `org.gradle.configuration-cache`
&gt; `org.gradle.unsafe.configuration-cache-problems`
&gt; `org.gradle.configuration-cache.problems`*
&gt; `org.gradle.unsafe.configuration-cache.max-problems`
&gt; `org.gradle.configuration-cache.max-problems`
&gt; Note that the original `org.gradle.unsafe.configuration-cache…` properties continue to be honored in this release, and no warnings will be produced if they are used, but they will be deprecated and removed in a future release.
`git grep` only comes up with properties files, docs, tests, and `subprojects/core/src/main/java/org/gradle/initialization/StartParameterBuildOptions.java` where they are used as "deprecated name"

I’m aware of the migration guide, but that’s not something user will go to when upgrading their Gradle version when using our template project with such `unsafe` property set.
`StartParameterBuildOptions` and deprecated names is helpful here — but I didn’t notice such deprecation message in the console. :thinking_face:

They don't come yet, see the part form the upgrade guide

Right, thanks a lot for all details, Björn!

I just share what I know, I'm just another user :slightly_smiling_face:
