Task List

• Steps to reproduce provided
• [] Stacktrace (if present) provided
• [] Example that reproduces the problem uploaded to Github
• Full description of the issue provided (see below)

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create custom profile with custom build.gradle that extends for example "plugin" -profile
2. Create for example plugin with the custom profile

Expected Behaviour

I would like to have custom build.gradle in my profile that extends another profile.

For example if I extend "base" and "plugin" -profiles then the "plugin" -pfofiles build.gradle is concatenated with "base" -profiles build.gradle and then my profiles build.gradle is concatenated to that result. I would like to just have my own build.gradle with no concatenation.

It would be nice to use the feature that already exists, but it does not work for the build.gradle because there is custom code for handling those.

skeleton:
    excludes:
        - build.gradle

I have not checked but mayby this same behaviour is true also for application.yml

Actual Behaviour

build.gradle files are now concatenated and there is no way to just have custom build.gradle in my profile.
