An ability to use in projects placed not in the Git repo root

[szpak]

I have a project which is placed not in the Git root directory (there are some other folders with scripts, docs, etc. besides the projects sources). This breaks a plugin:
``Running "git --git-dir=/home/foo/myRepo/myAppSource/.git --work-tree=/home/foo/myRepo/myAppSource branch" produced an error: [fatal: Not a git repository: '/home/foo/myRepo/myAppSource/.git']`

There could be an additional parameter to define a SCM root in a build script (e.g. scmRoot = "../").

Is this bugfix released yet?

No, Sorry it isn't. I haven't had any time to work on this project, and it doesn't look like I will anytime soon.

I've asked the Gradle community to see if there's anyone interested in taking the reigns on this project.
