I'm having a bit of trouble working with gradle's metadata verification system in an Android project. AAPT2 is a dependency for the Android Gradle Plugin and it's added to the autogenerated verification metadata file as expected (with the command

.\gradlew --write-verification-metadata sha512 help

). However, when I try to build the project on Windows, I receive an error because there's a platform-specific version of the tool (aapt2-8.3.2-10880808-windows.jar) that is pulled in and doesn't get added to the metadata file. So then I have to add it manually. Is there a way that I can have it added without needing a manual edit every time AGP gets updated?
