Thanks for the PR @cortinico. I was gonna add a changelog but saw that you put #skip-changelog. Any reason this shouldn't be mentioned in the changelog?

I'm fine either way. The reason I haven't added a changelog is because this is not a user facing change so it's probably not relevant for users. Up to you

@cortinico the way I understand this is that people using our plugin and also using Gradle 8 have their build failed by the @Input annotation. Sounds to me like it's user facing. Is my understanding wrong?

I'll add the changelog.

Sorry I wasn't exact.
This is one of the things to fix for Gradle 8 support. However there are other necessary changes to do (e.g. bump the Kotlin version). So mentioning in the release notes that this fixes the plugin for Gradle 8 is misleading.
