- At the popup window, click `Import Settings from VCS`. Wait a few seconds. 
  - If the error says "Context Parameter 'Branch' missing", it's ok. Click into the error and add a context parameter `Branch` with value `myTestBranch`. Go back and it automatically reloads.
  - If there are any errors, read the error and fix your code.

If you have a large number of messages of different types, filtering by severity to see only `Error`s can be helpful when processing the report.
Errors are the only type of issues that must be resolved for the `checkBinaryCompatibility` task to succeed.

Java serialization is inherently Java-centric and does not support cross-language scenarios well.

- **Type Safety:**
Java serialization does not enforce type safety as strictly as some alternatives, potentially leading to runtime errors.

## Decision

We do not use Java serialization.
Instead, we use custom serialization where we explicitly describe how data objects should be serialized and deserialized.

# Development best practices

This is a collection of best practices for Gradle implementation.
Should and should not do's.

## Error messages and suggestions

Traditionally, if an error occurred, the error message and the possible solution were provided to the console via a single String in the corresponding exception.
That meant possible solutions for Problems could be scattered all over the console output.
