+    deprecation-message: The `gradle-build-action` will configure your runner so that any subsequent Gradle execution will benefit. Using the action to execute Gradle directly is deprecated in favor of executing Gradle in a subsequent Step.

   # EXPERIMENTAL & INTERNAL ACTION INPUTS
   # The following action properties allow fine-grained tweaking of the action caching behaviour.
   # These properties are experimental and not (yet) designed for production use, and may change without notice in a subsequent release of `gradle-build-action`.
