From mobile apps to microservices, from small startups to big enterprises, Gradle helps teams build, automate and deliver better software, faster.

A while ago I had a bug while implementing these tasks that a folder was declared as input, but when I queried `task.inputs.files` it was not outputted. Using `@IgnoreEmptyDirectories` saved me back then.

I think I found the issue. One of the inputs of my task is a fileTree, and apparently when Gradle checks for the reported behavior it does not take into account its includes and excludes.
