Which version of Gradle do you use? Afair this should work since 8.0

As stated above, 7.6; I'm locked on to that due to shenanigans relating to building plugins that target 7.6 and being unable to upgrade as a result.

Then the answer to 2. is yes, I think 8.0 should solve the clash. 🙂 Regarding 1. you probably have to give them unique names like

includeBuild("../blah") {
    name = "foo"
}

As you probably do not want to do it in A or B but there still have

settings

for both, iirc you can mitigate it from

B

alone like:

includeBuild("../A/settings") {
    name = "settings-a"
}
includeBuild("../A")
