## Build state model

As Gradle executes, it acts on various pieces of the build definition, such as each project in the build.
Gradle tracks the state of each piece and transitions each piece through its lifecycle as the build runs.

A central part of the Gradle architecture is the "build state model", which holds the state for each piece and coordinates state transitions and other mutations. 

see [this guide](./platforms/documentation/docs/README.md).

### Creating commits and writing commit messages

The commit messages that accompany your code changes are an important piece of documentation. Please follow these guidelines when creating commits:

* [Write good commit messages.](https://cbea.ms/git-commit/#seven-rules)

 * if some elements are too small, they will be aggregated by smallElementAggregateFunction.
 *
 * @param list the list to split, must be ordered by size desc
 * @param toIntFunction the function used to map the element to its "size"
 * @param largeElementSplitFunction the function used to further split the large element into smaller pieces
