build-logic vs buildSrc after Gradle 8

[ersen-lw]

Hello,

I'm in the process of migrating to Kotlin Gradle DSL. Currently, I have my custom plugins in buildSrc. Working fine so far but I ran into one of the pitfalls where a single change in buildSrc causes a full build. I discovered this project and build-logic which looks like a better alternative.

I saw this PR gradle/gradle#22540 and they make buildSrc behave like a included-build which looks to be a solution to the issue I mentioned above.

Using Gradle 8.1 , I still encounter that issue where a single change in buildSrc (I just update one dependency constant) invalidates the entire build so I'm not sure what that PR changes.

Anyway, my question is would you still recommend using build-logic over buildSrc if you were to create a new project today ?

There's a description of the two build setups here:
