MergeSourceSetFoldersWorkaround still valid (won't be fixed by Google)?

[G00fY2]

MergeSourceSetFoldersWorkaround has an empty fixedIn parameter. But actually the status in the linked issue is set:

Status: Won't Fix (Intended Behavior)
We tried to add @DoNotCacheByDefault but got performance regression from some of our benchmarks so we revert the change in I031cf4a63f8c45538cc5247d29e2d30d03cfe21e

Does it make sense to then still ship this workaround?

If Gradle teams still thinks this is required I would expect a new issue with some data to hold against their result.

Thanks for bringing this up.

The underlying issue was that the MergeSourceSetFolders task launches too many worker actions. See this comment for more details: #225 (comment)

We filed this bug to address it: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/215395137

The disabling of caching was just a temporary workaround. It makes sense to remove the workaround. We need to figure out in which version it would make sense to start disabling it.

This was fixed in AGP 8.4.0-alpha01 and the workaround removed in this PR
