Android sourceSets task does not show output in Gradle 6.8+

[3flex]

Expected Behavior

I can run the Android Gradle task sourceSets on an Android module and see output.

Current Behavior

No output is shown from the task.

Context

The task works in Gradle 6.7.1 but not Gradle 6.8 or higher (and I've just checked a very recent 7.0 nightly as well). I suspect the cause is 4dac91a since SourceSetsTask extends AbstractReportTask which had its @TaskAction removed by that commit.

I originally raised this issue against Android's issue tracker but was told to raise against the Gradle project instead.

Steps to Reproduce

Open any Android project and run the sourceSets task in an Android module with Gradle 6.7.1 (works, prints output as expected) then switch to Gradle 6.8 and try again (does not show output).

Your Environment

Gradle 6.8.2, AGP 4.1.2 on Windows

@bamboo Could you check this? I reproduced it.

This will be fixed in Gradle 7.0 and most likely backported to Gradle > 6.8.3
Follow #16621 for this.

Thanks for the follow up, @ljacomet!
