+#### Replace all `versionCode` references with calls to `getBuildVersion()`:
+
+First one is `defaultConfig` definition:
+
+```gradle
+defaultConfig {

+  targetSdkVersion 22
+  versionCode getBuildVersion(defaultValue: 1)

+  project.name,
+  defaultConfig.versionName,
+  getBuildVersion(increment: true)
+].join('-')
