This is a separate gradle project that is kept in the same VCS repository. If you want to checkout/use/test the samples - you should import this folder as a separate project.
It is a separate project because gradle plugins need to be included as buildscript dependencies of the project using them, and this requires the use of a compiled artifact of the plugin.
In order to streamline this process and avoid to play with manual local/remote releases we are making the samples
project to compile its own local version of the plugin directly from its sources, leveraging the Gradle composite builds support.
This allow us to instruct the samples
project to resolve the com.novoda:bintray-release:*
dependency using the output
of the plugin Gradle project.
