Release notes are not uploaded/publishListing doesn't run at all

[carstenhag]

Describe the bug

publishListing does not upload Release Notes. I can't see them anywhere on the Play Console, at least. Tried 2.0.0 and 2.1.0. Play Console says that there are no release notes. "Previous release notes" also doesn't contain any new ones.

My play config is the following. The app was uploaded to the alpha track, but there are no alpha tasks, so I ran publishListing.

To Reproduce

play {
    serviceAccountCredentials = file("../playstoreapi.json")
    track = "alpha"
    defaultToAppBundles = true
    resolutionStrategy = "auto"
}

Also: publishListing doesn't seem to register file-changes inside the release notes directory.
After being run once, it just exits immediately the second time it has been ran.

Versions

• Gradle Play Publisher: 2.1.0
• Gradle Wrapper (if applicable): 5.1.1
• Android Gradle Plugin (if applicable): 3.3.0

Expected behavior

Release notes (be it alpha.txt, default.txt) should upload.

Additional context

app/src/main/play/release-notes/de-DE/alpha.txt
app/src/main/play/release-notes/de-DE/default.txt

Possibly related to #440 but I'm using the newest version. Actually, there are many related issues.

publishListing has nothing to do with release notes. The listing is about your app name, graphics, description, etc. It doesn't necessarily change with each app update. To upload release notes to an existing artifact, see #507 (comment). Otherwise, use publish[Bundle/Apk].

That seems to be it. Thanks!
