When I download gradle what job does gradleX.Y/lib/plugins directory? What is her task for what or where are those plugins in this library used for?

CodePudding user response：

This is not part of any task specifically. It is created by Gradle itself as part of its distribution.

See https://github.com/gradle/gradle/blob/master/subprojects/distributions-integ-tests/src/integTest/groovy/org/gradle/DistributionIntegrationSpec.groovy#L57
